Ellie B and I spotted a few birds during a recent walk around the blocks of our Liverpool neighborhood of Galeville.
Unfortunately, they were all crows.
Bird one.
The first we encountered was on the roof of an attached garage.
Bird two.
The second sat high amid bare branches.
Bird three.
The third chose a perch in an evergreen.
Not one made a sound.
And none flew away as we passed.
Odd. And a bit creepy.

Crows are extremely intelligent, but they can be scary – especially when they appear in flocks. As a child, a friend told me if a crow lands on your house it means someone will die. I’ve been a little wary of them ever since.

That’s enough to scare me, too, CM!

I love crows- they linger atop the trees or houses cawwing to one another. Here’s a wonderful crow, Birdie- might change your mind about them https://youtu.be/TH8Syz0NvD4
