Good afternoon all,
 At about 1 PM I stepped outside my shop to get some fresh air (just sprayed a dining table) and turned the corner to look over the front field. I looked up when I heard a faint "cronk" call, and saw a Common Raven being chased and harrassed by 2 crows. The birds flew NW over our yard and the woods way across the road, and the crows finally broke off the chase. The raven was doing great evasive maneuvers in flight, turning upside down like a Red-tailed Hawk as the crows swooped in. Lots of fun to watch! 

Luckily I had my binoculars on the bench outside my shop so was easy to grab them hurriedly to watch this scene unfold.
