Your photo of this crow is excellent. Getting him to pose just right with all his feathers in place is a good touch.

Great portrait of this intelligent bird. The dark color of its plumage is a wonderful contrast to the green of the meadow.

"…but they also steal eggs" AND summer fat balls hung by idiot songbird supporters like me! they do it again and AGAIN! it's actually quite fascinating how smart and sly they really are! they either tear the net holding the food apart or take it by the string and carry the whole thing off! it's two of them, a couple that's feeding their young, i suppose… they've been raiding my garden forever: they know, where the good stuff is, and criminal energy and sense of timing is absolutely amazing! they are VERY secretive! for quite some time i didn't even know it was them stealing my fat balls. my main suspect was the forever cheeky squirrel… but then one morning, when i pulled open the kitchen curtains, i caught one of them, let's say mr. crow, red-handed! he spooked and flew off. or so i thought… when i stepped out the front door, i noticed him on a neighbor's roof: he was watching me! observing me like a private eye, planning his next move… after i came back from watering my plants in the back yard, the second grease ball was gone! they've been playing tricks on me for days in a row!!! so i finaly stopped hanging grease balls altogether. the sparrows? lost souls now, still searching for that extra fast food dangling from the trees, the growling of their minuscule stomachs a forever audible reproach! ; )) tell it to the crows, birds! they are the ones to blame!! – – nice mugshot of the feathered con artist, mark! his intelligence does show, doesn't it? love the detail of the feathers growing on the root of his beak! greetings, sabine.
