Folks
I told you that if you were in my driveway at 7 AM you might see the Common
Raven. Well you should have been. This time I got some crummy images but
adequate for the records committee. About 7:05 AM Gwen turned off her
drying and yelled "He's here!".
I ran with camera in hand and heard and saw the animal waiting for
breakfast, calling all the time. An American Crow came in and buzzed him, I
started shooting with the camera, the Raven sat briefly, then started to
fly. I caught the head and bill shape while setting, then got several poor
quality flight images.
When he comes back I hope to get more and better images. Now I don't have
to write a description. Yippee!
Phil - I will send images later.
Very exciting.
