Jackdaw’s steely gaze As pointed out by the French psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan in 1964, “must we not distinguish between the function of the eye and that of the gaze?” In fact, we are all experts at interpreting eyes’ movements. The human eye has an iris that is small enough for its position to be plainly visible against the white of the eye, a rare situation among mammals. This makes it easier for us to infer where another individual is looking: nonverbal communication par excellence! What about birds? The western jackdaw (Coloeus monedula, “choucas des tours” in French), unlike other corvids, has particularly salient eyes due to its near-white irides, which are conspicuous against its dark feathers. The individual on my pic was photographed in Meknès, a Moroccan city in Spanish-Moorish style of the 17th century, surrounded by > 40 km high walls, surpassed only by the Great Wall of China. Jackdaws are particularly abundant in Meknès as the huge fortifications provide fantastic nesting opportunities. In 2014, Gabrielle Davidson from Cambridge University and her colleagues reasoned that the white irides of jackdaws are even more striking when seen from outside the cavities where these birds nest. Because the birds compete for nest sites, their conspicuous eyes may act as a warning signal to indicate that a nest is occupied. They tested whether jackdaws’ pale irides serve as a deterrent to prospecting conspecifics by displaying images with bright eyes only, a jackdaw face with natural bright eyes, or a jackdaw face with dark eyes. The jackdaw face with dark eyes was least effective in deterring birds from approaching. Jackdaws have also been shown to be sensitive to eye gaze direction in humans by delaying their approach to food when an unfamiliar human is looking towards them. Furthermore, they are able to use a familiar human’s eye positioning as an indication of where hidden food is located. This attentiveness to human eyes may be attributed to the jackdaw’s own brightly colored eyes. So be careful not to be betrayed by your eyes when jackdaws are around!

While coloring my hair last night my Aunt turned to me and asked if I wanted to go get a tattoo. Since it’s been a while I thought why not. Saw this concept online and went with it. birds have always been something special to me and lately my favorite books have dealt with birds in some way (Melmoth by Sarah Perry and my favorite series of Miss Peregrines Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs). Feathers seemed appropriate and soon a few birds may appear. Excited to build on the idea! #tattoo #spontaneous #sanantonio #customink #saturdaynight #builditup #feathers #birds #melmoth #Sarahperry #jackdaw #missperegrineshomeforpeculiarchildren #ransomriggs #peregrine #flyaway #odetobooks #odetobirds #afewofmyfavoritethings

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Animal posers: Jackdaw ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The western jackdaw (Coloeus monedula) is a passerine bird in the crow family. Generally wary of people in the forest or countryside, western jackdaws are much tamer in urban areas. Like magpies, they are known to show interest in shiny objects such as jewellery. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #birdfreaks #birdsofinstagram #natuurfotografie #animals #creature #natuur #wildlife #vogels #beauty #animalkingdom #birds #naturefreak #photo #animal #cute #naturephotography #waterleidingduinen #amsterdam #postoftheday #planetearth #earth #jackdaw #nature #instageneration #feathers #photography #photographer #kauw #wildlifephotography #inaudible
