One of my corvid friends who came to visit.

I'd been driving along local backroads with this
black-winged beauty flying 20 ft overhead,
straight down the centerline, leading the way.

I decided to pull over.  S/he landed nearby.

We croaked and chortled and cr-r-r-ucked to
each other...sometimes in English, other
times in Corvus.

After a while, it was time to return to our
activities, so we bid each other 'adieu'
and departed in different directions.
