A couple of Crows/Ravens as I am never sure as to which one they are. These 2 were in the tree which is out the front so there wasn't far to go to get them.

Good news they are neither. The beaks are too small to be a crow or raven.

Yes these are one or the others as these are Australian birds and we have a lot here and I think these might be the Little Crow. These one are around my area where these were taken. There as I mentioned we do have a few type of different one from small but not overly small to bigger than these ones.

There's no explaining coconuts on the west coast of Canada, but this crow didn't care.

An afternoon in the spa, a bit of cut and style, and just enough time left in the day to get the nails done, ready for a big night out.

OK, so here is my crow of the day.

It's no great photo, but it kept me occupied for a couple of hours recovering this much from an almost-silhouette The sun is just to the right.

I am fond of crows. I meet up with a dozen or more every afternoon for a feeding time. I was happy to see that there was actually detail in dark!

Next, I need to learn how to better with the sky.

You're going to find the DR of the A7M4 is pretty substantial, and recovery at both ends is pretty good.
