JACKDAW :
This bird has a mixed reputation. In England (UK) traditionally the sight of a
lone jackdaw perched on a building is an omen of bad fortune. A flock perching
on the roof indicates not only the possibility of an addition to the family but
added financial gains for those living inside the house. If it drops down the
chimney is it reputed that a death in the family will occur. Should a flock of
jackdaws fly around your house or be seen settling late into the evening then
bad weather is on the way.
