if we have ravens here? Either I saw one who was cruising over
Rattlesnake Lake on Xmas morning or the crows are getting scarily big
around here. I can NEVER remember what it is that's diagnostic about tail
shape. Anyone have a mnemonic for crows/ravens? Anyway, this bird had
learned to soar from some hawk school of flight and he was just chortling
away to himself. The sun was out and the mtns had a lovely white coat.
That was our church for the holiday.
