and then you'll understand this description....

So I was pissed and instead of crawling in a hole, I got in my car Bad idea usually, but I also brought my camera. I thougth to myself...These people are full of shit and I'm going to go get some awesome shots to show them wrong (not that they care really, but I do). So anyway, it turns out that getting good shots on a rainy foggy day in December in the Marin Headlands [link] is easier said than one. Well, halfway up Conselman road (before McCullough Road), I saw these two crows/Ravens sitting around looking to cause trouble. So, I thought I'd harass them some. I pulled over and they didn't even move...pretty bold birds. As soon as I got out of my car though they became a little edgy. They finally decided to go off and hassle a poor red tailed hawk, but I caught this shot as thise dude/gal jumped off the bench. Very fitting for my mood at the time!

Great shot and interesting description. I read that crows have the largest brain size relative to body weight of any bird.

Oh wow this picture is so coool, well done capturing the crow like that for starters, but I really like the background too, the fogg with the crow make for a great dark atmosphere

It was sort of luck in a lot of ways. I mean I wanted to get this exact picture, but had to take a lot to get it

Wow. (Once a pilot, always a pilot.)
Beautiful capture of the crow in all its raucaus elegance. And what a backdrop!

Thanks Steve. I can see why people fly. This guy made it look so easy. It was fun to watch them dive bombing the hawk also. I guess maybe they were protecting a nest or something because two of them went after the Hawk...
