A crow perched at the Nagoya Zoo

A council of crows convened on the tree in the neighbor's yard.
From the remaining branches of a tree, they had a lively discussion
A contractor had pruned many of the majestic branches
and left these branches of the tree in a pile

A crow spoke up, declaring what has happened here was no accident
The other crows continued to echo this call for action
This tree has weathered great storms of our many generations
This tree has protected and provided us with many fruits
The branches removed can never been replaced

In these uncertain times
What happened to this tree shall be remembered
A garrison of mosquitoes has been activated
And some are already on patrol
We must remain vigilant and protect those who have protected us

Many birds are known to use human-made elements in their nests, but Carrion Crows and Eurasian Magpies are apparently stealing and repurposing "anti-bird spikes" as a nest-building material.

hello
#crows #birdsofmastodon

My partner has a #CorvusCabal warband for #warcry, which I painted for her. I kinda wanted to enter this one into #goldendemon this year, but this one doesn't have any basing and I'd need to fix some things. Still a cool though!

Hier chillen sie in den Abend hinein.:D

a few more from the winter darkness before we step into the light of spring

Er brauchte etwas Zeit, bis er sich runtertraute. Hat den Kopf nach links und rechts geneigt. (verlegen, beschwichtigend)
Er ist aus der neuen Truppe.
Ich sitze da unten mit Erdnüssen. **gg**

Good morning

There is a crow city growing above main street.

Er oder sie, ist aus einem weiteren Revier. Nahe stillgelegter Bahnschienen.
Da ist etwas verwilderte Natur.
Einer aus der Truppe, fliegt oft begrüßend, dicht über meinen Kopf hinweg.
Sie fragen nach Erdnüssen, beobachten aber auch noch viel.

Just discovered that we have a pair of crows nesting way, way up in the oak tree in front of my house. There have been crows around here for years, but last summer I saw a few alight atop my fig tree, then continue up to the oak, and wondered what was up. Only recently did I notice their super big nest hiding in the dark upper reaches of the tree. They’re very quiet, stealthy even. It was seeing them regularly out on the phone wires that finally tipped me off. #corvid #crows #Birds #birb #borb #niceNeighbors #featheredFrens #corvidae

Came down to help my parents out a bit. They’ve both got something with a dry cough and aches.

This sculpture has changed logs at least once. This one has some nice moss and lichen going.
