About Me

My photo
I'm a simple Scottish girl with an unusual name and a strange obsession for nail polish! My aim is to capture what the eye sees, with a camera! Too much nail polish and never enough time. I have also started wildlife photography, which I enjoy very much. Welcome to my little world :-)

A Beautiful Crow

 

Crow

Crow

Haven't posted a crow in a while. This guy was a regular at the pond last year. I would feed him both wild bird seed and the duck pellets. I used to put them in a little bit just for him, as you can see in the second photo. What a gorgeous and intelligent bird. I built up a good relationship with him and he would wait for me nearby. The more crows get to know you, the more they trust you. BUT you have to earn that trust. In return for this food he would pose for my photos! I think building a relationship with a crow is an amazing experience. They are gorgeous and lovely and smart creatures. They are one of my favourite creatures on the planet along with cats and ducks.

  1. Tienen que buscar su alimento, en medio de la naturaleza. No está mal ponerle alguna comida.

  8. Indeed! We have them coming over to our balcony for lunch every afternoon. If we are late in laying out their table they keep cawing!
