Since I have seen NO ravens around my new house, I am forced to make raven visits to get my RAVEN fix. Therefore I drove up to Mt. Veeder equipped with eggs and non-salted peanuts in the shell. Both are great raven favorites. I parked on Mt. Veeder Road near the big redwood tree where the ravens frequently hang out. I got out of the car and started calling- RAVEN- really loud. Then I heard the raven call back- it made me so HAPPY! In a few moments they both appeared and sat in the tree watching me. I put the eggs and peanuts on the ground and sat in the car and watched them come down and get them. I was very pleased. The 2 women who bought our house are interested in the birds. They told us that the ravens come around every afternoon. We told them about their love for eggs and they were interested in that so I hope they will feed them some eggs!
Yesterday we went to Bodega Bay. I observed the tree near the restaurant where we like to eat. The raven pair were there! So I went over to pay my respects sans eggs however. How rude of me. I should be better prepared next time. If I had never lived on Mt. Veeder I probably would never have paid any attention to the big black birds. I am so glad that I did live there and learned about ravens.
