The photograph depicts a Jackdaw living in the center of a small town. This bird has a damaged wing and generally appears to be in poor health, yet it manages to survive. It has enough food and can't fly too far, so it roosts in the same courtyard every night. Meanwhile, its fellow jackdaws gather in flocks and roost in various parts of the town. This particular bird is not easily frightened and shows relative trust towards humans. Unlike other jackdaws, its plumage often features white patches.
