Two Crows Joy

This was not a great morning to wake up early. I woke at three, and felt very awake. Finally, after tossing and turning for a while, I decided to get up. It wasn’t until I looked at my computer that I remembered the time change, making it even earlier than I thought. It will be a struggle to stay up until nine tonight. I did look out the window to see if I could see the Northern Lights, but no such luck.

It was a little windy this morning, but sufficiently pleasant that I took Dudley out for a walk at nine while the horses ate breakfast. We saw deer and Dudley briefly chased them without much conviction that he could catch them. While we were up on the plateau behind our house, I saw two large crows flying together in the wind. They took turns dodging into each other, for all the world like kids playing chicken. Made you jump! I don’t know if they were fighting or playing some weird corvine game.
