Foggy Morning


A very foggy morning, and I came across a large group of crows grazing. They took flight before I could get my camera ready, but I still got a couple of nice shots. I've been noticing patterns of crow and raven behavior around American Valley and the surrounding mountains. Reminds me of a place where I lived in Mendocino County. Both here and there it seems like the crows prefer open fields and the ravens like the tall firs and redwoods around the margins. Occasionally they'd feed together, such as on road kill, but mostly kept away from each other. The ravens made a much larger variety of sounds. I'll keep watching.
