"Where are you going to, rooks, to where?
Flying along in the evening sky,
By three and by four, by the dozen or pair,
Like black tattered rags that the wind blows by.
A clear winter's day and the sun going down,
The endless procession goes ambling along,
Heading south-easterly over the town,
Random, persistent, a straggle, a throng."
by Philip Dunkerley

Mixed series of five. You never know what you will find and, today, was no exception. As I walked back to the car this Rook was sitting enjoying the sun and taking no notice of me just below it.
Rooks are reportedly becoming fewer in number. I don't notice it. They arrive in mid-autumn and fly away before spring arrives. They are very fond of eating Italian nuts.
