Have you seen this recently posted link about a jackdaw? Jackdaw causing havoc!

Hi Dutchess, thanks for the link, i had missed that one,
that one has all the tricks that jacky had, although he was never confined, and was free to come and go as he pleased, he would tap on the kitchen window with his beak in the morning until he got his breakfast (he preferred our food to finding his own) and if you were not quick enough feeding him, he would fly onto your shoulder with a loud "jack" and give your earlobe a sharp tweak with his beak ! and the local cats gave him a wide berth
