This is cool!! I love crows!! Awesome awesome!
Lovely. Anyone interested in nature & poetry might want to check out “Conversations” by Clem J. Nagel & Elizabeth C. Nagel. Similar mood to Leaf & Twig. Enjoy!
Very nice! I wonder if they were waiting for some poor unsuspecting hawk to fly by.
Are you sure they weren’t having a caw-cus?
This is wonderful photo.
So that’s what they’re doing…telling stories! I hear the birds in our back yard trees twittering, especially in the early morning, and always wonder what they’re talking about 🙂
I’ve often thought they were telling stories and making plans for the day. Blessings, Natalie 🙂
Wonderful: An interesting photo combined with imaginative words, beautifully expressed.
Sentinels of truth
Crows are incredible smart and social birds. I would bet half of the flock conversing in the tree are related. I also understand that crows can recognize human faces and get to know who belongs in the neighborhood and who is a stranger. Our own stories about crows are mixed. In European folklore, crows (and ravens) are figures of sinisterness and malice. But to Native Americans, crows are revered messengers. I prefer the latter sentiment. Striking photo. Love birch trees, love crows, but especially love seeing them together.
Awesome sight!
I love this capture! I’ve been seeing so many crows lately, it’s crazy, and they’ve been in huge flocks making such a loud ruckus, it’s great.
i like the fact that we can distinguish clearly only the crows on the top of the tree while for the ones below is just an estimation…
