Teaching respect for other corvids

Teaching respect for other corvids
I like to think that the one on the right was the parent of the crow
on the left and that she was harranguing him about how it SIMPLY IS
NOT DONE to eat another corvid. Fifty other smaller birds were
watching silently, horrified, from nearby perches: a dozen bluejays, a
half-dozen other crows, a flicker couple, a bunch of juncos, and some
goldfinches. A moment after I took this picture, the Eater Crow tried
to put on a show, fluffing out his feathers and crowing. But he
accidentally kicked the blue jay corpse and it rolled down off the
roof to where he couldn't get it. Lesson learnt, or at least given.

The crows all left, and the little birds laughed. The other blue jays
were eating my peanuts within ten minutes.

Lebojo, Sylvain Wiart have particularly liked this photo

He should have been there! Or a cat. But I don't think so :(
