You know, for the first time in nearly two years now, I saw a good-sized young turkey come out of the woods and fly across the road and go into the woods on the other side.  I hadn't seen a wild turkey since Hulda disappeared.

The cycles of nature go on!! Nature can be both beautiful and rough.  I have only encountered good from the crows, and will still like them although they can have a bad side.  They might be better if they don't multiply too much anyway, although it is sad when a little family is broken up with violence.

You had me hooked with the opening line,

and all the way to the end. I happen to love crows, but they can be irritating as hell. Funny how attached we get to their stories, their daily battle for survival. We do feel a kinship -- and you filled this post with that connectedness.  Write on!!!

Very well done Kabu and I read with interest as I once watched as a pair of crows out smart an old dog for his dinner.

Love it, Kabu! And I know how you feel - Soft hearts want Nature to be kind...but it's just....Nature.

A great vignette of nature red in beak and claw! Now, if one could only teach hawks to eat peanuts, LOL...

 Flowers & Butterfly  Nature has a way of bringing forth our human emotions in it's fight for survival.
