It is a quite hot day (30 degrees Celsius) for this location. It usually hovers around 25 degrees. The jackdaw was walking about with another jackdaw looking for food, actually pecking some dead insects off of a cars bumper. The other jackdaw did not have its beak open.

Is this a cooling behavior, perhaps similar to when dogs pant?

        Black Books (s1e4). It’s a daft Father Ted / IT Crowd style comedy.

        The main character’s posh friends are angry at him for being extremely drunk at a dinner party and traumatising their son, who has been walking around with a shocked open-mouthed expression ever since walking in on him going to the toilet in their kitchen. He tries to downplay it by saying that’s how children normally look.
