Living down in the South East of England, I rarely get an opportunity to see a Raven & much less to photograph one.
I was therefore pleased when this big guy dropped in unexpectedly, during a recent shoot.
Norway - Sept 2021.
⛧"“Then this ebony bird beguiling my sad fancy into smiling,
By the grave and stern decorum of the countenance it wore.
‘Though thy crest be shorn and shaven, thou,’ I said, ‘art sure no craven, Ghastly grim and ancient raven wandering from the Nightly shore –Tell me what thy lordly name is on the Night’s Plutonian shore!’ Quoth the Raven, ‘Nevermore.” ⛧
The Raven - Edgar Allan Poe

It's fantastic to see Ravens making such a good recovery over the past 20 years or so. They are now a reasonably common sight over the moors of Derbyshire. I photographed this individual as it flew over Curbar Gap and headed off down a mist-covered Derwent valley, with its distinctive cronking call echoing off the gritstone edges.

Thanks a lot, everyone, for stopping by, for looking my work, for your comments and likes! Always appreciated!
Ravens are a part of my everyday life.
I watch, or just as often, hear them whoosh by high above the kitchen window cawing to each other on summer evenings.
They watch me for any scrap of fallen morsels or a chance at the bone the dog found and drug home.
They watch. I watch. I take their picture to add to my feed for others to feed on.
Ravens are becoming a more common sight on the moors near Sheffield. These two were cronking overhead as I was walking along Derwent Edge. I waited until I could frame them above the Salt Cellar.
Hello lovely people ( ´ ▽ ` ).｡ｏ♡
This picture is for my lovely Raven-chan, who was very much in need of a new profile picture. I had so much fun painting on your pretty face (⁄ ⁄>⁄ ▽ ⁄<⁄ ⁄) hehe~
Thank you so much for your patience and posing for me. It was a lot of fun putting the scenery and pose together for my favorite person. I hope you'll like how this picture turned out ~ ♡
Raven - Corvus corax
The common raven (Corvus corax), also known as the northern raven, is a large all-black passerine bird. Found across the Northern Hemisphere, it is the most widely distributed of all corvids. There are at least eight subspecies with little variation in appearance, although recent research has demonstrated significant genetic differences among populations from various regions. It is one of the two largest corvids, alongside the thick-billed raven, and is possibly the heaviest passerine bird; at maturity, the common raven averages 63 centimetres (25 inches) in length and 1.2 kilograms (2.6 pounds) in mass. Common ravens can live up to 21 years in the wild, a lifespan surpassed among passerines by only a few Australasian species such as the satin bowerbird and probably the lyrebirds. Young birds may travel in flocks but later mate for life, with each mated pair defending a territory.
Common ravens have coexisted with humans for thousands of years and in some areas have been so numerous that people have regarded them as pests. Part of their success as a species is due to their omnivorous diet; they are extremely versatile and opportunistic in finding sources of nutrition, feeding on carrion, insects, cereal grains, berries, fruit, small animals, nesting birds, and food waste.
Some notable feats of problem-solving provide evidence that the common raven is unusually intelligent. Over the centuries, it has been the subject of mythology, folklore, art, and literature. In many cultures, including the indigenous cultures of Scandinavia, ancient Ireland and Wales, Bhutan, the northwest coast of North America, and Siberia and northeast Asia, the common raven has been revered as a spiritual figure or godlike creature.

The Common Raven is the largest songbird in the world, and the individual in this image is vocalizing at a location along the Ingraham Trail (highway) that runs east of Yellowknife, the capital city of the Northwest Territories of Canada. Thanks to its size and resourcefulness, this species does very well even in the Arctic in wintertime. (It has a circumpolar distribution and is also found year-round in Greenland and northern Eurasia.). The Common Raven is the territorial bird of Yukon Territory, to the west of the NWT in the northern part of Canada.

(Corvus corax) I saw these two ravens yesterday at Portland Bill. I don't know if they killed the rabbit or if they just happened upon it, but it was very fresh and nothing else was around. I suppose all wildlife has to eat and they probably saw an opportunity. It does make you realise how big a raven is though - they dwarfed the poor rabbit!
This eagle was hunting for Richardson's ground squirrels that have shown up in the last few days. Watched him try numerous times with no luck. It didn't help the ravens didn't want him in their territory.
For my next few posts I've decided to wander aimlessly through my thousands of photos and wait for an image to say "pick me". This morning a raven shot taken on a southern California beach said it.
The Australian raven (Corvus coronoides) is a passerine bird in the genus Corvus and is native to much of southern and north eastern Australia.
These intelligent birds live in my neighbourhood, but seldom eat from my food table. They do however sit on the high point of my rook and keep an eye on proceedings. I got this shot one day before the great Covid lockdown of 2020.
The raven sat on a fence post and demanded we share our lunch with him. We didn't so he went off in search of more amenable people.
Happy Fence Friday!
