Hi Ian - although there are also big mobs of Little Ravens collecting
together now in Thredbo, the pair and baby who have been visiting the
balcony are still very much 'together' - the parents were just having a
lovely canoodle (if that's what Ravens do, please no more terminology
debates) on the railing, they are incredibly tender with each other for
such big birds, much beaking which I assume is their version of kissing,
and little low throat talks with each other. When they arrive together,
Junior is now getting chased away by dad who seems to think he should be
looking after himself, which is probably right. And Junior is here
tapping on the glass balcony door at daylight looking for breakfast,
when it gets too much I tell him to go and find a garbage bag to raid.
cheers, Wendy
(snow due tomorrow but thank goodness the flies have felt the cold and
decamped or died!)
