THE WOODS WOULD BE SILENT...

"The woods would be silent if no birds sang there except those who sang best."

~Henry Van Dyke~

(Click on above link for a biography.)



Crows often visit us and my photo of this one was taken yesterday as he sat on the deck rail.  I have always liked crows and the more I read about them, that liking has been strengthened. There are very interesting facts about them here. 

I also found a story I thought you would enjoy reading. This is a snippet. Their are photos and you can read the whole story at this link.

A crow couple has been together for more than 12 years. She broke her beak 8 years ago in a collision with a car. Since then they have stayed together and he has patiently fed her.

(Added note: I have since found out that the crow who broke its beak was a male named George, so named by the author of the blog post - previous link - who originally told their story.)
