Done? Draw a portrait of a bird 

Love him or hate him, there's a bird in a Yorkshire community that's the talk of the town.

A jackdaw going by the name of 'Derek' has been creating a bit of a stir because locals are saying they are scared to leave their homes. He has been a regular sight in the village of Rossington for a couple of years, according to a community Facebook page, but people have mixed views about him. On top of this, he has been creating quite a literall mess.
 Some love him, however there are plenty of others who think he is becoming a bit of a nuisance. Normally, birds are scared of humans, most small birds like red breasts and sparrows won't even come close. Consequently, people are divided about what to do about the jackdaw.
