Jackdaw

A very warm afternoon which resulted in this Jackdaw laying down and spreading it's wings, it stayed in this prone position for ten minutes, this roof is south facing but I can think of no other reason than he was just enjoying the warmth, as I was, obviously not lying on a roof.
The closest I have been to experiencing this behaviour have been Blackbirds lying in the same position but on the ground and have read that this activity is a de-lousing activity and is not the same behaviour activity as this Jackdaw.
So come on guys, is anyone else familiar with this activity?
