I wasn't correcting you - I assumed it was the photographer who called it that.

(7,080 posts)2. Good pic.
Today a crow sat just outside my kitchen door and cawed loudly. So I offered him a peanut in the shell and he took it from my hand. Then came back for seconds. Several years ago, I had a crow that did the same thing. Don't think it would be the same one. But who knows? They all look alike! lol

Otherwise, it's a great photo of an incredibly gorgeous bird. One of my favorite birds to boot - all are smarter than most republicans.

I appreciate your frequent birding/photo posts. They remind me to make some time to do some birding.

told the resort owner you have a lot of crows up here. He laughed and said they're not crows, they're ravens.
