Three weeks ago I had the unexpected visitor seek
shelter from the wind in my ditch.I had thought it was a crow but after returning and findind him gone I figured it was gone .The next day I once again saw this black bird but after a good look noticed he could not fly .He just walked with a hop every so often,He possibly hurt himself in the high wind,maybe on a power line?This Raven has hung around better than three weeks now.Roosting just off the ground.This fellar is doing quite well despite all the predators and probably has not ate much.The thought of bing able to fly every where and then only able to walk.Last night on a stroll to the pond and came across the walking Raven,startled him to th point
where he walked all the way across the swamp and into the forest,thought he was gone for sure.This
morning found him on this side of the pond and quite some distance from last seen.With any luck
his flight capabilities will return and he may return with his buddies who fly over often,until then he is the walking Raven.Seems rather determined at this point. Buck
