The chunk of pizza from yesterday’s photo was gradually worked across the parking lot. Most of these crows are following along behind it, with the few on the left appearing to take objection to their interest.

Yesterday’s crow couldn’t get any help getting that pizza box open, but once he did he got plenty of help eating it.

There was a lot of interest in the piece of pizza in this box but only one crow actually trying to get the box open. Even after numerous tries where he got it almost open only to have it fall closed again, his friends were still just standing around watching.

A quiet evening walk in a park near our house, back before there was only a dusting of snow on the ground.

Just an unusual snow pattern on the street that caught my eye one day.

Some very intriguing, quirky photographs from eastern Europe by the photographer Hajdu Tamás can be seen here. I enjoyed his sense of timing and his eye for the oddly compelling.

The day after Thanksgiving happened to be garbage day on our street and there was a small flock of magpies who happened to be there to work through the Thanksgiving dinner detritus and I happened to have my camera nearby when I looked out the window and saw them.
