We the contemplative - for doubtless there are many others besides myself - turn out thoughts and conjectures, our impulse to understand the fabulous, not solely towards Jakob’s enigmatic lineage and past. His appearance, which so stimulates our imagination, compels us to devote some thought to his future as well. And we do this with some hesitation, with a feeling of resistance and sadness; for the presumable and probable end of our darling will be a violent one. No matter how much we may want to imagine a quiet and natural death for him, something on the order of his dying in the warm room and good care of that legendary lady in Ennetbaden to whom he supposedly ‘belongs,’ all probability speaks against it. A creature that has emerged from the freedom of the wild, from a secure place in a community and a tribe, and has fallen into the company of human beings and into civilization, no matter how adeptly he may adapt to the foreign surroundings, no matter how aware he may be of the advantages his unique situation provides, such a creature cannot completely escape the countless dangers concealed in this very situation. The mere thought of all these imaginable dangers - from electric current to being locked up in a room with a cat or dog, or being captured and tormented by cruel little boys - makes one shudder.
Herman Hesse, The Jackdaw (trans. Rita Lesser)

Currently obsessed with these naturalistic illuminations from a manuscript of De Proprietatibus Rerum (1447, Bibliothèque d'Amiens, ms. 399). I just know that whoever commisioned this must have hired the nearest artist with an insane obsession for birds before proper birdwatching was even a thing. They hired the nearest De arte venandi cum avibus fanboy.
Like, the fact that despite the stylized drawings you can clearly tell that these are a corvus corax, a corvus cornix?! Hello?!?!
I love you, unknown french artist from the 15th century.
#Edit: a couple people made me rightfully notice that what I thought could be a carrion crow#in absence of better candidates#could actually be a jackdaw#and that either way it doesn't even match the text it is meant to represent as it was a total misinterpretation of it#just to let everyone know!#thank you irl french andreas maler#illuminated manuscripts#medieval manuscripts#ornithology#ravens#middle ages#corvids#medieval history#medieval art#history of art

It is with a heavy heart that I inform you that the Gavle Goat has survived 2024
I wish you all the best in 2025 and look forward to the goat (hopefully) burning this upcoming December.

My nayme is bird And wen it's Yule And Swedish snow Lies cold and cruel I look for seeds With many friends But food is scarce Where flock descends
But then we hear Of ancient rite We leave the trees We all take flight If fire not Its end promote? We do the deed. We eat the goat.
#gävlebocken#IÄ IÄ EAT THE GOAT#fun fact the local roller derby team is called Jackdaw City Rollers#jackdaws are persistent little buggers. flocks of 40k birds cawing at you in the night

A set of stickers commissioned by the awesome @kyrjaa, who let me print and sell these in the future! Thank you again for this wonderful opportunity, I had so much fun with these <3
The set includes all corvids living in our part of Europe except for one - I need to draw Spotted nutcracker sometime as well :D

— Знаешь, — устало вздохнул Эдвард. — Однажды ты должна будешь рассказать мне, как ты это делаешь. Он вялым взмахом обозначил ее поджарую фигуру. Галка наклонила голову знакомым птичьим жестом и наморщила нос. — Я покажу тебе. — Она сочувственно скривилась, когда Эдвард со стоном переставил ноги на планку повыше. — Потом. (с) «Позднее возвращение»
Или как “Галка” дошла до жизни такой.
