Raven

I was out in the garden this morning, noting that the pocket gophers have now developed a taste for green beans (in addition to tomatoes, garlic, okra, any kind of squash, etc.) and wondering how best to deal with this next year when I heard the unmistakable croak of a raven.

We’ve lived in this house since 1999; this is the first raven recorded as a “yard” bird…

  2. We once watched a raven eating a pocket gopher, for what it’s worth.

  3. Ha! Ron, I saw a crow eating a pocket gopher this morning! It was excellent.
