Hi.

We have been doing a cryptic birds quiz over Christmas, where each answer contains the name (or nickname) of a bird. We've got it down to the last two and after spending absolutely ages on them, we are totally stumped and could use a little help.

The two clues are:
It starts with Jamaica (7,4)
Eden was no paradise for him (6,10)

We'd be happy even with just a hint or some guidance - we're tearing our hair out over it.

1 carrion crow?
//John Crow, the common Jamaican vulture, was once widely known as a carrion crow or turkey vulture. ... Lapage indicate that] the first record of the bird being called John Crow was 1826. ... Whatever the story behind the name John Crow, it is deeply embedded in Jamaican folk life.//
For the 2nd one check Charles Dickens. I still need the Jamaica one.
