A pair of ravens have adopted our fountain as a stopping off spot and a place to get a drink.

Ravens are tough birds. They do not tolerate smaller birds and chase them away.

But, we believe in letting nature take its course and if there are to be ravens, then there will be ravens.

They are fascinating birds to watch. They wash their food. And leave bits and pieces near their fountain for later snacks.

I am ambivalent about the other birds but we weren't getting that many anyway. Around here, the population is sparse except during migration.

So black is the new bird costume.
