Saw this little guy sunbathing on the back of my bike when I got back from getting groceries. Probably liked the bags since they were quite warm from being in the sun.

He was very unperturbed when I walked up to him, pretty much giving me a look of "Do you mind? I'm enjoying myself here". Only moved when I unlocked my bike.

Cute! But to be pedantic, this is a jackdaw, a different type of corvid, super chill little guys

No one calls jackdaws crows ¬.¬

Funny, you made me realize that's a language thing. In my native language (Dutch) it is very common to refer to both crows and jackdaws as crows.

In dutch a jackdaw is called a 'kauw'.
