    Hi Dianne. I was lucky as they don't usually sit around for a portrait!

    Hi Chris. Just over 6 feet away.

    Hi Cory. Cheers, I just took advantage of its unusal lack of taking flight.

  11. He really is a beauty. I dont think I have seen a crow this close up and so Im really enjoying this one. Makes me want to try and get one come spring. I think they have all gone south now.
    Snow will soon hit Im sure. It comes early here .

  12. Hi Lisa. They don't usually allow close inspection but this one made an exception...thankfully. I hope you get some more glorious autumnal days before the first snow fall.
