Description

Captured this critter when it was way up on a light pole making all kinds of noise. No foot-long 1500mm lens employed here. Used a 10X optical zoom setting with a relatively slow shutter speed on my Konica Minolta DiMAGE Z2, with no tripod or monopod to help steady my hand. Incidentally, crows are very smart and said to use twigs as tools in many instances. They sometimes try to dive bomb me with rocks. Other than crows, all we have around here avian-wise are pigeons and sparrows. Unfortunately, no owls, eagles or falcons to photograph.
