Crow Trinket - Treasure or Trash? #crow #giftfromcrow

Crow Man

The relationship with Crow Man is growing.  He knows when I get home in the morning and when I am likely to put out food.  If I'm gardening, he's sure to show up ... and let me know he's there.  Sometimes he'll simply wait in the "feeding" spot.  The sound of the door opening no longer sets him to flight and I can get quite close to him.  He won't take the food out of my hand yet, but perhaps that is a good thing.  He cocks his head to look at me and sometimes responds when I talk to him with a funny "ma-roop, ma-roop" sound.   Sometimes he sounds just like a cat and it makes me wonder how much time he's spending with Finn! 

Crow Trinket - Treasure or Trash?

There is rumour that a crow will sometimes strike up such a relationship with a person that they will show their gratitude for food by bringing some prezzies.  I am hopeful that soon the shiny trinkets will begin to appear!  The only thing he has brought me so far is an old stick.  However, it is a very interesting stick, and looks like a small animal. My resident fairy, who is very observant, noticed that it has a teeny, tiny bit of red paint on it as well.  So maybe the gift-giving has begun!
