diesel is pretty cool...but catfights with mirrors are cooler!

someday he will get the drop on that rascal.....question, what is the diffence between a raven and a crow?

you had to ask and being an amateur desert birder..lessee...ravens populate the interior remote regions (like here) crows stick more to the coast, cities and farmland. ravens are usually a good 6" taller with larger wingspans and body weight. crows "caww" while ravens make all kinds of clicking noises as well as mimicking other birds and chimps ( i swear). they live a lot longer too...about 20 years longer. oh...and crows have smaller beaks and curved tails. ravens have thick beaks and triangle shaped tails. i'll bet youre sorry you asked davo. now whats the difference between a fiddle and a violin?

actually, that is exactly the kind of answer i hoped for...my house is often surrounded by the little buggers, mocking me as i move through the yard....chasing the ocassional eagle and gull....letting the damn woodpeckers alone though....caw caw caw .....cant help you with the fiddle/violin....it would seem the difference there may be the player.

Crows, ravens, whatever... but grackles?... oh, nevermore.

alright dan!!! a closet birder. i think we folk in the southeastern corner of california have phoenix and tucson to thank for making it a simple hop across the colorado for these whacky birds. the first time i heard their "ratchet" call i was hooked. then two of them fell out of a tree locked in a death grip at the old ghost ranch inn on miracle mile and knocked over our highballs.

how cool is that?

they are considered "invasive" and "obnoxious" nowadays here in borrego springs...but i dig em. tho they make fun of me. dont think they were around when william was alive or im sure he would have used a boat tail...

shoot all them flying shit-droppers!

a man of many words...

I think he's been soaking his pickle in alum... or he's just a big dillhole...
