@tsar GRATS ON YOUR TURKEY VULTURE SIGHTING. I still get excited when I see regular wild turkeys around here.
OMG ME TOO

There were three ravens in my yard when I went out to the mailbox today. No idea what they were doing, and they flew off before I could even get my phone, but I was shocked to see these animals I’d only ever seen in photos before. I always thought ravens were small, but these things were each the size of a football before they even opened their wings.

@GF They were being unkind.

This is a pretty tame wild animal encounter but I’m gradually rescuing pictures from Photobucket and found my trip to the Petrified Forest from a few years back, where I met this handsome creature.
The pics don’t convey how BIG ravens are in a way I was not prepared for, but it was a kindly raven. It was clearly used to people and I think was angling for me to feed it. It had a business.
I want something else to get me through this
Semi-charmed kinda life, baby, baby
I want something else, I’m not listening when you say good-byeShe/Her or They/Them

Loki, is that you?

Not the greatest shots because despite being MONSTERS they terrify super easily
I think it’s been eating my hibiscus. I tried to get better shots when it moved to the pool AND IT HAD A BUDDY but they ran away as soon as I raised my phone.

TINY FROG!

That is CLEARLY just a leaf, @Snackness.

@BurnNotice That’s what he WANTS you to think.

Ravens in the UK typically have a wingspan of up to four feet. They are not small birds by any stretch, and it’s only the size that marks them out from the other all-black birds. We had some in our corner of Wales - the only birds that were bigger were European buzzards and red kites, since we didn’t have eagles.
tl;dr: Ravens are big.

@Snackness I think we need to call in @hellfrog to tell us everything we need to know about smolfrog.
