TWA CORBIES

As you all know, the lower aviary in the CFZ grounds contains a rather manky looking crow who cannot fly anymore. His name is Ichabod Meldrew, ans he is the latest of Corinna's Corvids.

This morning as I was about my ablutions I looked out of the bathroom window, and saw something that I had only read about before. On top of his aviary, cawwing away happily to him were two large wild crows, and Ichabod was perched on the top branch looking for all the world as if they were having a deep and meaningful conversation.

I have heard of wild corvids visiting captive ones before, but never seen it. However I know I'm weird, but I am not so weird as to take my camera into the bathroom with me, and by the time I had gone downstairs to get a camera, they had - loike all the best tabloid journalists - made their excuses and left.
