great and perhaps a bit spooky. I am very fond of crows, though. I like the snow on the beak. Uschi (V)

He looks as still as the snow, a lovely portrait of this shiny crow. V

A "murder" at the cemetery! What an interesting setting for a bird that is associated with death, doom and gloom in folklore. But this photo is so bright and cheerful, the bird so handsome that it is hard to see how humans ever saw crows that way.
