Since I am burned out on our continuing snowy, frigid weather, I am going to revisit a lovely time in Betws-y-Coed, Wales. These captivating metal-sculptured crows caught my eye at a village square, because they have such personality.
I took them on a trip to Deep Dream Generator and Topaz Studio to add some pizazz.
Thanks to all for taking the time to look - I appreciate all of your kind comments!

Thank you to everyone who views, favs or comments on my photos, it is always appreciated.
Crows are one of the smartest of the birds.
For example, crows understand analogies, can exercise self-control, can fashion tools and like to play—all signs of what we call “intelligence.”
An article that appeared in the science journal PLOS ONE in July 2014 puts a comparison estimate on that brainpower: the authors concluded that crows are just as good at reasoning as a human seven-year-old child.

Many thanks to all who take the time to view, comment or fave my images.
From my archives taken on a sunny day at noon. Zoom for best view. Crows are my nemesis and I hope to spend time this spring and summer getting a closer view.
Happy Texture Tuesday. Have a lovely day:)

As we walked across a small bridge at Hall Memorial Park, we spotted this Crow. He was walking back and forth on the bridge as he grappled with a piece of food. Now you know how this works, you never miss an opportunity for an up close and personal picture. We were not sure what he was having for lunch, but it made for an interesting image.
Way yonder a tired horseman on a tired horse is moving
through the shreds of mists. Out of another age he comes,
a quartermaster, a silent herald of miserable war to
come.
There is always something sad about a lone horseman
from another age moving through the mists, especially
at dusk.
