It's been really interesting watching them with the neighborhood cats. I'll have to keep an eye out for these books.

When he looks at me out of one eye I can hear his brain ticking over but I never know what he is thinking because I imagine he is smarter than I.

Every dumpster in town is owned by a raven, there's a raven nest in a corner niche high up at our county court house, and our neighborhood has its own collection of the birds. They are individualists, not flocking except when adolescent.Granny Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07302978680897139954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16542790.post-19309399776914410562008-08-16T17:22:00.000+01:002008-08-16T17:22:00.000+01:00i'm quite fond of crows and magpies... they are ce...i'm quite fond of crows and magpies... they are certainly intelligent inquisitive birds.<BR/>i've read the excerpt and it looks quie captivating.polonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12631341810150848122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16542790.post-28422175290604062152008-08-16T15:29:00.000+01:002008-08-16T15:29:00.000+01:00I've had that Mark Crocker book on a wishlist for ...I've had that Mark Crocker book on a wishlist for a while. I really like crows, always have done, although I'm not that sure of the identification between them and rooks and such. Perhaps people are apprehensive because they are so dark, they are so incredibly black, almost inky. I notice other birds arent too keen on them either. Poor things, outcast by everyone.jemhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08181038873568527264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16542790.post-78704236001615379822008-08-16T15:08:00.000+01:002008-08-16T15:08:00.000+01:00I enjoy watching crows too and was totally amazed ...I enjoy watching crows too and was totally amazed at their intelligence and also their playfulness. They also have a team spirit sometimes much stronger than humans. Crows make for an interesting study.Janice Thomsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02506920585319893814noreply@blogger.com
