What a week it has been for Ravens, Crows and Bodhrans! I went up to Mt. Veeder this week to visit the ravens. They were out picking around in meadows looking for good things to eat. Good thing I brought a bag of peanuts with me. Yum yum- they love unsalted peanuts in the shell. They are such beautiful birds. I never get tired of watching them. They are SO much bigger than my crow friends.
The most outrageous thing happened this morning! I am taking on line lessons on how to play the BODHRAN- the celtic drum, for those who don't know what it is. I was banging away with the music with my on line Scottish teacher when what did I HEAR??? Yow- it was crows carrying on outside my window. They were clacking, yelling, screeching and making all kinds of noise! I have never heard such a racket from crows! They didn't like my playing because they quit making noise when I ceased banging on my drum. Hum- they don't appreciate good Scottish tunes! What am I to make of that? I am going to try it again tomorrow. I am going to fill the platform feeder with their favorite foods and THEN I am going to get my bodhran going. What will happen?? Will they again let me know that they DO NOT like my musical selections? Stay tuned!

maybe it's totally the opposite - maybe they loved it and were singing along with you!

Well I am going to find out. If they like it that would be really something. Maybe I could get a crow buddy and become a traveling music show!
