Jackdaws (Corvus monedula) are one of the smallest members of the crow family. The Dutch for jackdaws is "Kauwen".

--- Quote from: birdcamfan on April 01, 2009, 18:26 ---The crows that invaded the (dove) nest in Netherlands took advantage of the dove leaving the nest and destroyed her eggs. Very sad to watch. They even took the shells out of the nestbox. The note below the cam notes that the falcons (torenvalk) that normally use the nest are also still hanging around chasing the crows away. The nestbox is now empty.

I'm not sure which site this is, birdcamfan? Perhaps it is Beleef de Lente, where jackdaws moved in and took over the nest?
