Jackdaws (kaie) coming in for landing below the house in the bay! It’s a hard winter for them with continuous snow cover!

Always a joy to watch the aerial heroics of jackdaws (kaie) over the house in the evenings before flying into the roost….did I tell you I’m coming back as a jackdaw?
Every morning a large flock of Jackdaws / kaie fly past the house on the way to farmland to the east where they feed during the day…it happens very quickly so difficult to film. This morning I was filming the view of a snow shower over the fjord and the flock arrived, so I quickly started filming…
I love Jackdaws / Kaie, particularly for their playfulness and aerobatics, like this over the house today!
Jackdaws (kaie) fly every morning to breakfast which is served in the fields to the east of here…standing on my bedroom balcony, there’s suddenly a pressure wave as a small group of birds fly at breakneck speed right over the roof above my head…must try to film it one day…but this morning they and I also had a glorious view too…dreaming of coming back as a jackdaw…they have so much fun it seems!
The largest recorded Jackdaw flock this winter in my area, about 600 birds, circling over the house gaining height to quite a high elevation before flying off westwards…
The temperature hasn’t risen above zero C for two weeks here..
