Something To Crow About!

I didn't realize that crows had such a pretty wingspan until I got this shot of one backlighted. The crow is really an impressive bird, smart too!

Some interesting information about crows here - http://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/american_crow/id

Excellent shot, they are smart birds, you never see one squashed on the side of the road.

super shot Vern

Definitely not the usual view of a crow. . .wonderful catch. Crows and ravens are way smarter than the average "bird brain".
