I photographed crows a couple of days ago. Mine had a less charming background! I love the way you can see all of the feathers on this one. So cool. I'm sure these ravens are much bigger than our small crows in Astoria. In other parts of Oregon there are real ravens . . . big ones!

What a great shot! These birds are so smart there isn't any way you can get rid of them! Was he picnicking or just resting for a moment?

Excellent composition, the layered feathers are beautiful. There is a lot of history there...

This is so perfect that at 1st I even thought the bird was fake! Lol! But then I saw the red ring on its leg. Amazing shot, VP! Love the blurred background too.
