That's not to say that they aren't loud, blood-thirsty and like to hold a grudge. Forever. <br /><br />It is the time again for baby crows and I'll keep my fingers crossed that the little ones on my block thrive. And that I don't walk to close to them when I don't know they're there.blackbirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07044667449525289901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-937211191284874151.post-59759417132717269462009-05-21T19:53:21.800-07:002009-05-21T19:53:21.800-07:00It's the down side of being a cat lover.

Once he'd have run away with it - or growled and swiped at me if I tried to take it. But he's beginning to grow out of his totally absorbed serial killer phase - and so he just dropped it.<br /><br />I really like how you told this story. Concise, sublime...

Christmas gifts, always, for family and friends. He was a "crow man", about "our age". He particularly wanted all the beaded keychains that were birds, and aprons. About 2 years ago, just when the "warehouse" was moved to a storage unit,I heard an NPR special on crows, but which also mentioned him as a "recently deceased" expert on crows. He always spoke of crows as the epitomy of bird intelligence. He would joke about why in-the-heck Guatemalans never made beaded crow keychains -- just toucans, parrots, etc. He was sorta charming. Crows were his "life work". He seemed to absolutely adore them --go figure.linda anahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18437936005724709523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-937211191284874151.post-6781323746049377272009-05-21T12:31:20.166-07:002009-05-21T12:31:20.166-07:00The kingbirds around here dive bomb the cats when ...The kingbirds around here dive bomb the cats when their fledglings are learning to fly. Since even adult kingbirds aren't all that big, you have to give them big points for valor, & they drive the cats crazy. But I've never heard it going to that point. Crows are really smart animals.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15687192784861682991noreply@blogger.com
