Lucie , likes her lunch on her upside-down cymbal perch !

Wolf -
Does Lucy communicate with you?

Paul , Yes she does . She makes a loud chirp sound when she does a " Fly in" to visit ;like "hello I am here now ". She also makes other soft sounds when she knows that I am in the vicinity . She actually seems to enjoy our time together . Out of a group of about 8 birds she seems to trust me the most . She is a friend whom I love .

(and also finds relationships with non-human's to be fulfilling on a profoundly deep level)

I agree Paul , I have been working on establishing a relationship with these Local Crows for years it seems . I have also had close encounters with Ravens whom have been less standoffish  .The Ravens have been in general more quickly trusting , Crows seem more intensely scrutinising and careful . I do not have very many Local  Ravens as my Crows seem to be  territorial so I have to take a short drive to visit the Ravens whom I also  love ! . Upon my arrival they always seem immediately interested and congenial . Of course I am always the purveyor of treats for them .

They are fascinating creatures. Uncannily intelligent, and playful. (I told you about them pulling on all the wiper blades, right?)

Here's a rosy sunset that happened while I was on my evening walk through upper Masons Cove a couple nights ago.

Nice straight grain in those wispy clouds 

Lookin' out my back door...

Blue Heron?

They're inner city birds where I live.

Blue heron. They hang around our ponds and sit in our trees. Adriaaan, where do you live!?

A city so nice it's the subject of a 2002 US federal law, aka the Hague Invasion Act.

Greg, the water tower looks art deco, should be emitting plasma streams in all directions!

Rare snowfall here in the Gulf Islands. Came with its own power failure - but worth it (I think - we'll see how long the power is out...)

That is spectacular view, Richard!
