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.
