Description Corbin the American Crow is a permanent resident at Horizon Wings, due to permanent injuries he suffered as a nestling. The strange, flared feathers on his right wing are an odd effect of the injuries to that wing. Every season, he molts them out and they grow anew, all splayed up and out like his own personal fashion accessory.

This is amazing! It's not only really impressive to have painted this on feathers, but I love the hues on the crow's feathers and the way he contrasts with the background!

A lot of people don't realize that crows and ravens have striking colors within the black!Β  In the right light, you can see it.

Similar to the iridescence of grackles?

Yes! Though not quite as dramatic. Here's a pic I took of the raven at the center - twitter.com/brendalyonsart/sta… You can see the blues and purples in his feathers.
