Raven Imitates Ostrich?

I have no idea what was happening here! A raven started to follow me around the parking lot
at Hurricane Ridge. We fell into a game of I would move, it moved, it would land on the
snow bank along the edge of the parking lot. He would walk back and forth while I took photos.
Then I would move along and it would fly to wherever I stopped and do it again. Why he dug his
head in? Don’t know! It didn’t come up with food, I do know it was trying to beg some food
from me and it was putting on a show! Very entertaining!
On that note!
Don’t feed the animals! Keep the wild in wildlife!
(Yes that means you! Just incase some of you have Mountain Man Syndrome)
