Great pic! Surprised it's capable of flight and out of the nest tbh! Assuming it is of course. We had a young Jackdaw in the garden last week which definitely couldn't fly and must have fallen out. Disappeared into some undergrowth for cover but would be surprised if it survived the night with the number of cats & foxes there are in & around our garden.

Thank you, erm yeah surprised me too. It was certainly away from the nest and the Male was returning to feed it, it was limited with it's flying but a few days after this he disappeared as did the father. It did have a sibling with it but regrettably I found it deceased where I took the photo We've also had wren and blue tits fledging in the garden as they somehow made their nests in the bloody shed :roll:

As for the Jackdaw, hope it made it even it there a gazillions of them!

Possibly a jay. Not my photo, unfortunately.
