Corvus Corone Corone
Hi everybody, went out with my camera during my 1/2hr lunch break today, and stumbled upon this Carrion Crow keeping a watchfull eye out for any young at a local fresh water pond. It noticed me, but let me grab a few frames before flying off. Not the nicest of perches, but beggers can't be choosers! All C&C's welcome, thanks for looking.

Good on ya for keeping your hand in at lunch time .A more natural perch would have been better . Harsh mid day lighting isn't helping. Ask the gaffer if you can have lunch later ...

I don't have a shot of a Crow so I'd be pleased with this as a starter, nice one Paul.
