Poe-ish Crows - Missoula, Montana

You could also title this post "Fun With Filters"...the stark contrast of images in my crow photo from a couple days back worked rather well (in a shuddery sense) with a moody noir filter. 

But if your crow thoughts trend more to that shiny object collector, Poe the Crow of Sterling North's lovely book, "Rascal", you can sprinkle on some glitter and mischief to lighten the mood. (Or you can just tell yourself they are cooing doves out on a Friday night date....)

Premium Seats To Spring - Missoula, Montana

I hope these aren't the same crow pair from last spring who dive-bombed me whenever their fledgling was lolling about the lawn next to my lunchtime walking route!

Calf And Cow - Hamilton, Montana

"...When the calves come, along with the laughing,

Spanking new, beckoning, Spring, green grass

yearning softly sighs like earth's breath,

pleading with wisps of wind..."
