Title: Finally!
Post by: gjtoth on October 17, 2008, 07:59:41 PM
I *FINALLY* got a halfway decent shot of a crow! They are very difficult to shoot (camera-wise) and get any definition of features because they are so black.

There were TWO blue jays on this feeder and just as I snapped this shot, one jumped to a branch.  >:( You can see part of his tail on the right of the shot.

I can hear that crow complaining all the way from here!  Love that jay  - we have one who thinks he owns the old tv antenna on our shed.

When I was expecting our first daughter I would regular as clockwork get up for a potty break at 5:30 in the morning.  We had a mild March that year and our bathroom window was open.  I would hear the crows "cawing" loudly every morning. It was interesting. to know they were up before me and while it was still quite dark out.

Yes they are niosy!
