Subject: [Tweeters] Raven sighting today - Gig Harbor - Midway area

I was walking at the corner of 38th Ave NW & 50th St Ct NW at about
11:15 am today when I heard odd "gronking" calls above me. First I
spotted some diving crows and then at the top of one of the trees on
the NE corner saw a large black bird. It was "just leaving" and I was
able to see its pointed Raven's tail. This bird was nearly twice as
large as the other birds. It flew almost over my head, following 38th
Avenue downhill & headed south, followed by the crows. I quickly lost
sight of them in the trees.

Could this be the raven spotted at Point Defiance? Midway is about
three miles west of the park "as the corvid flies."
