The Religion of Crow


No finches, juncos, robins, sparrows or stellar jays.


That's the current state of our yard and our neighbourhood of late.


You know why?


B-caws! B-caws!


Crows. Wall to wall crows. Night and day. All crows all the time.


Yesterday I hauled out the binoculars and counted over 20 of these suckers roaming over the tops of 3 evergreens across the way.


They are loud, noisy, annoying and they chase everything else away.


But wait.


They are also all dressed in black, they produce many offspring and they keep to themselves. Why didn't I think of this before?


They are just Hasidic Jews in disguise!
