Caw 02

Having been away from home for a bit, and with nobody here to keep the crows coming by, it took a few days to reestablish our relationship. Truth be told, I'm still not that good at identifying individual birds to be able to say with any certainty that they are the same birds. Nevertheless, they're crows alright. And they like peanuts in the shell. And while some are quite timid, others are bold enough to visit when no peanuts are visible and wait until I produce some. So yes, we each have the other fairly well trained. I knew a highlight in the eye would improve the image. And of course just sitting there with the camera, other opportunities present themselves, like this collared dove entirely unsure what to make of the offering.
