Jackdaw – A jackdaw is a small black bird, known for being loud and for scavenging food. It is generally an ill omen in a dream, signifying trouble and annoyances to come. If you dream of seeing one fly by, or land and fly away, this indicates that an endeavor will encounter some obstacles or be overthrown. If, on the other hand, you capture a jackdaw, this indicates that you will overcome the misfortunes that the jackdaw brings, and your endeavor will be a success after all.
