About a month ago I noticed this crow with a broken wing. I thought for sure he would succumb to his injuries or starve to death, but every few days I would see him again. I started to leave food out for him in hope that he would find it. I have tried to get close enough for a good photo but he is smart and surprisingly quick. It always seems as if the crow is alone but if I get to close several other crows start
appearing, very interesting. It is comforting to know he isn't completely on his own.

I want to thank you again for all your emails and comments of encouragement and concern for George and I. He continues to respond well to the chemotherapy and so far he has managed to avoid infections of any kind. We have to avoid groups of people and children especially, which makes it a bit hard, I miss everyone so much, but I know it is only until March or April. And we are getting excited... Christmas is coming!
Wishing a warm and sweet Christmas for you and George.
ReplyDeleteRoxy looks quite comfortable in the snow like a big ol bear.
Poor wounded crow.
I'm glad to hear things are going well regarding the chemo.

Thanks Laura, Roxy is one sweet dog-person. I'm not too sure about that poor crow, I might be able to find someone who can set the wing for him, he seems so strong otherwise. It's actually illegal to help wild birds here in Newfoundland, can you imagine?
ReplyDeleteHi Shannon, thanks for your lovely comment, a big hello from Madrid.
ReplyDeleteI hope Xmas and 2012 will bring to you and to your family a lots of good things and good news !

That is interesting. Nature makes me full of curiosities. I hope to take more time to just watch and listen like you have.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful, memorable week.

It's hard to watch. I have a squirrel who is very much a regular. I feed it every day. The squirrel who I named Wobbly has something called head tilt, a inner ear infection and is permanent. Makes him/her go around in circles. Now I have a very large group of squirrels.... they have all caught on!
