Are the numbers of jackdaws increasing?

When we first moved to Sheffield, 20 years ago, there were no jackdaws and the magpies ruled the roost. Now, although there are still some magpies around, there are many more jackdaws and very noisy they are too! We are on holiday in Holland at the moment and the numbers of jackdaws are incredible, almost one to every chimney pot (and most chimneys have twigs sticking out the top, put there by jackdaws). Even down at the beach there are as many of the birds as there are seagulls (also large flocks of sparrows, I'm pleased to say). Has there been a jackdaw population explosion?
