    In a first photo it looks as if the evil black shadow is chasing a poor gull :insane:

    I like the last one as well :yes:

    I love the photos on your blog. I have to say, you've really excelled yourself with that crow, that picture is utterly gorgeous.

    Fantastic photos – the last one is impressive: capturing a black bird in action but with details is not easy!

    Thanks Neil. But you haven't seen the previous and following shots. Not quite so good.

    Thanks Lois! That last one is the reason I take so many. Eventually you get something like that.

    Darko, somehow I missed all the comments here. I was really pleased with that first shot. Am accident (the crow flew across), but somehow it works.

    Thanks Tony. That last shot of the crow was a treat for me. Early evening and low light. For once the conditions were about perfect.

    I think this was down to me. I must have looked, gone off the page (so the alert doesn't show), and then forgotten. :doh:

    The "Black" photo is outstanding :up: But it's not a crow, is it? If I'm not mistaken it's a raven. :confused:
    And the raven never fleeting,
    Still is sitting, still is sitting…

    It would have been a very small raven. No really, it was crow. In our garden. 🙂

    Well… our crows differ then…

    Maybe 😉

    Just catching up 🙂

    That first picture really did make me blink. Brilliant, just brilliant!

    Welcome back Adele! That first shot is so strange, the way the mind place the crow further away.
