More rooks fighting - this time they don't fight high in the air, but close to the ground. And I added the last two pictures to show that the fights end really fast and then they just part like nothing has happened.

This area has loads of rook colonies and they are all loudly working on building their nests right now. This gal seems to be not impressed with his moves tho xD

The man on the radio talks with the traffic lady about the cost of going to see your favourite singer, mentions Stevie Nicks, the traffic lady says she'd spend 100 euro maximum. Someone called Tracy won the musical clip competition this morning. Take it away Barbra Streisand, it's your Birthday today.

Blossom upon blossom on the apple tree. I'm peering through my condensation covered window. Two young Rooks are building their first nest high above the apple trees. The ground is littered with all the twigs that fell during construction. The main Rookery is the other side of the house. I wish them luck.

Shiny metropolis part II. Town seems oddly quiet these days. Did the rapture take place again? Or did the mother ship finally find these missing people? Perhaps an unexpected portal?

Can't help but think of South Park and Cartman's alien probe. Such irreverence ... surely I'm going to hell. Best add marshmallows to today's shopping list ...

My personal highlights - 2023 - part 8 (the final part):

Crows. Of course the get the honor of the last post of my year review. I have made so many pictures of crows, but there were so many more encounters that I haven't any pictures of. I gained the trust of six pairs of crow that have their territories in the neighborhood and that was and is something special for me. Of course the youngsters were great too, even though from my neighborhood crows only one pair managed to raise a chick. It was also a joy to observe the young rooks. But there were also losses, the hooded crow that used to watch me from the tree in front of my living room got killed by a bird of prey. And the youngster from last year, the first crow that ever took food from my hand, had to leave the territory of their parents and I haven't seen them anywhere, but I hope they are alive.

With that I will end my New Year's Eve bird posting. I wish you all a Happy New Year and lots of birds.

Some of you guys say you like corvids but really just like crows

I made a corvidae fancam with that one boys 12 template

I just really wanted to make a poll so here it is :)

Please reblog for bigger sample size

May I have both rooks? If your out, maybe a pawn and a bishop?

Sure, I don't think I'll ever run out of pieces!
