Our Friend the Crow

The other day I was watching another one of Flora Doehler‘s delightful videos, Garden Update, and she kept interrupting her own narration because “our friend the crow” was vying for her attention.

Listen to the Crow

I actually spoke out loud to the screen: “It’s me, Flora. I’m trying to get your attention.” (As I’ve said before, my initials are CAW.)

This double spread is for you, Flora. I know you are listening, to many things, not just our friend the crow. I can say that for sure because your numerous videos are filled with your observations, ideas, paintings, painting techniques, and fascinating facts about your life in Bear River.

You are listening, all right, and you have a lot to crow about.

P.S. I hope to spend some time under that magnificent willow.

Corvidae Broadcast

That bold call never fails to snare my attention. Once again I determine to let my voice be that assured, to say what needs saying, no matter who dubs me forward, familiar, or any other words commonly employed to subdue the pure exhilaration of pleasing my bona fide self. Can you imagine a crow allowing anything

else?
