@dearmaizie @ct_bergstrom Carl's thread delighted me so much that I had to share. Hoping to use his advice when the weather improves in my neighborhood.

I have taken photos of crows in our back garden. And I've painted birds. But I truly enjoy crows. Some people see them as nuisance birds who enjoy trash, but if you observe them, you find that they're highly intelligent, resourceful, and social. I have even painted a crow's portrait simply to illustrate the lovely subtlety of its plumage. 😊
