Juvenile Crows Take a Bath

I've built a cascading water feature in my yard that is designed to attract birds. There are several bathing spots and different depths. Today I watched some juvenile crows explore the water.One was less cautious than the others. You can see he has already jumped in the water. (The blur in the background is the most hesitant--he waited in the cottonwood trees for quite a while.)The first one in took a long time bathing.The next sibling was very observant.Looks like he figured it out.The two of them took a stroll down the stream bed when they finished and found a few things to snack on.Then, back up top to join the rest of the crowd and preen for a while.

Quatre Crows by Robin Kent

Here's a fun foursome by contemporary folk artist Robin Kent. She posted a comment about one of my crow photographs (Crow Compadres) so I looked her up and discovered she has a few crows of her own.

Pretty Girl, an American Crow in Venice (California)

Got 20? (minutes, that is) If you do and you want to know what it would feel like to have a female crow adopt you, check out the video I've posted at our sister blog:

You'll be entranced and enthralled AND you'll get a big crow fix.

Smile Diver

This photo, like most of my photos, is a just a bit out of focus. In spite of it, there's enough of a reflection on the corvid's eye to bring it to life. And, I swear, if a crow could smile, this one is.

Crow Above the Traffic

I've been taking lots of photographs of clouds lately, since we've actually had some for a change. Found an American Crow, too.

If Corvids Were Archangels....

I love downloading the camera after taking pictures of the American Crows that sometimes hang out in front of my house because images like this appear. If you don't agree with the angel idea, how about Las Vegas Showgirl Crow?

The Crow Bar Coasters

If you've visited my Crowcentric blog (all things crow) you will have seen a posting about a pub and kitchen in Corona Del Mar, California, called The Crow Bar. I had a delightful dinner there. So I'm featuring their creative coasters as well as a lovely piece of etched stemware by Alone Larsen.

Monotype with Crow

Deliberation is a monotype where I have introduced patterning and symbols that are part of our cityscape along with the American Crow, also part of the city.
