The Rook: a tireless seeker, unearthing secrets from the soil with a silver-gray beak and wings of ink. Rooks are the "socialites" of the crow family, usually found in bustling rookeries. They use those powerful, pale beaks like a spade to dig for leatherjackets and larvae. #corvid #inkonpaper #naturedrawing #actionart #birdillustration #rook #blackandwhiteart #inksketch #traditionalmedia #crowfamily #wildlifeart #inkwork #brushpen

🌏 Rufous Treepie (Dendrocitta vagabunda) The Rufous Treepie is medium-sized bird with a long, graduated, bluish-grey tail tipped in black. It has a black head and chest, and a bright rufous (reddish-brown) body, with a noticeable white wing patch. Native to the Indian Subcontinent and parts of Southeast Asia, it thrive across various habitats from open forests and scrublands to urban gardens. An agile, arboreal, and omnivorous member of the crow family (Corvidae), the Rufous Treepie is very conspicuous, often seen in pairs or small groups.

Gemini 3 (Edited) Conservation status: Least Concern (IUCN 3.1) Fun fact: It is known to engage in a rare relationship called cleaning symbiosis with large mammals like the Sambar deer. The bird will perch on the deer's back and feed on ectoparasites (like ticks) right off its hide, which the deer seems to permit. 📷: Photo by balouriarajesh via Pixabay https://pixabay.com/photos/bird-rufous-treepie-7659917/ XWHQ

Seen a Jay today in the garden. 50 years ago they was quite common, nowadays it's rare to see this colorful intelligent breed. So much so I initially thought it was an escaped Cockatiel, until I realised it was a Jay. Its made me happy. 😁

#Birds of the crow family are not all migratory birds, instead, many species are year round residents in certain geographic locations. Corvids are omnivorous, eating from many sources.
