Additional Information.  Our next-door neighbour had a tame jackdaw and the bird would sometimes follow us to school.  It seemed to know that I didn't like it, so it would swoop down onto my head and peck at the button on my cap.  If a window was open at school or at church the bird would come in.  Reverend Stewart would shout "get that confounded bird out" - as it would sit on a beam or ledge and squark.
