THE HAIR DO — CROW PRINT

Echo emerged last week. I’d hardly seen her since April, so I’m assuming she’s been on egg incubating duty. She looks rather pleased with herself — and continues to bob her head in what seems to be a way to compensate for partial blindness. #echocrow #crowphotography #crowwatching #nesting

Going on a trip?
Combine a handy zippered pouch, complete with inner dividers for keeping travel essentials in order, with a handy crow-English dictionary.  You never know when you might need to write a secret message in crowphabet!

Having heard the murmur of hatchlings in White Wing’s nest last week, I think it’s time to post my annual guide to:
(a) spotting crow fledglings and
(b) having empathy for the frantically worried (and occasionally dive-bomb-y) crow parents.

Bongo is extremely busy with hatchlings in the nest, but found time for a brief two-bong weekend greeting this afternoon. 🖤 #bongocrow #crowatching #nestingseason

A few of the pendants in my long weekend sale! #crowpendant #birdpendant #ravenpendant #junehunterimages

I am having another go at sorting out my chaotic studio and a byproduct of that is tackling the Pendant Pandemonium!
As a result I have a random selection of glass pendants on sale for 20% off in my shop — most of them are one-of’s and a few are remainders of designs I don’t make any more.
Might I suggest this might be a great time to stock up on gifts or pick up something special for yourself!
It’s a random mix — mostly crows but also ravens, other assorted birds, botanicals and even the iconic East Van sign.
The link to the sale is in my bio above.

White Wing spent a good five minutes on stretching exercises after emerging from a long, cramped shift on the nest. #whitewingcrow #crowwatching #nestingseason #parenting #crowphotography

Bongo has clearly been pulling his weight in the nest cleaning chores department. #bongocrow #nestingseason #crowwatching

Our maple tree appears to be confused by the rapid switching from one season to another with scarlet leaves already appearing amid the brand new green ones.

Mr. Walker and Wanda yesterday. She’s been sitting on the nest and he’s feeding her! Fingers crossed for their second nesting attempt after being derailed by Mr. w’s eye mishap! 🤞#walkercrows #crowwatching #crowphotography #nestingdolls

An important message from Bongo:
It is HOT out here, and DRY. B-o-n-g!
It’s so early in the year for this heat the trees are not yet fully leafed out so many nests are not well shaded. B-o-n-g!
Parents and tiny fragile fledgling crows are struggling to get by in those hot nests. B-o-n-g!
(Ditto for all bird species) B-o-n-g!
Could you please put some clean water out for us??? B-o-n-g!
Thanks in advance. B-o-n-g!
