The daw (jackdaw) is a iconic bird in British and Northern European folklore and literature, often appearing in classical works. The term is archaic in modern usage except in ornithological contexts. It has little cultural relevance in Brazil or Portuguese-speaking countries as the bird species is not native to those regions.
