#DownyWoodpecker
Stumbled on this bran-new little Downy on my way to lunch.
Easy to come to the conclusion that this adorable Downy Woodpecker is in his first year of life. His belly is all white, without any stain from trees yet, and also while approaching the end of Winter Season he should be less slender. Meaning that our friend here has been well fed by his parent last Summer.
So long life to our new little friend Downy.

It is June 3rd and kids are about to take their first flight lesson. They are nearly at 2km from here and we can still hear them replying to Mother Raven who's teaching them how to communicate; in code.
Meaning we're most likely about to see the entire family flying around soon.

#AncientWisdom
This video of a Raven, a symbol of Ancient Wisdom, feeding on roadkill carries a profound metaphorical significance. In Ancient Wisdom, Ravens often represented messengers and keepers of hidden knowledge. They were believed to possess insights into the mysterious and unseen aspects of life. Roadkill, on the other hand, symbolizes the unfortunate consequences of life's unpredictable twists.
When combined, this video illustrates a powerful lesson: Wisdom can emerge from the most unexpected and challenging circumstances. Just as the Raven, a creature associated with foresight, finds sustenance in the remains of tragedy, humans can extract valuable insights from their own setbacks and losses.
This symbol encourages us to look beyond the surface, to search for meaning in the most unlikely places. It reminds us that Wisdom is not exclusive to the privileged or the fortunate; it can arise from adversity. The Raven's act of dining on roadkill underscores the notion that, in the cycle of life, we can turn even the most difficult experiences into opportunities for growth and understanding.

Morning visit from one of my best friend, communicating with the guys to know, if anyone has found the breakfast of the day somewhere.

Diane is still looking for some attention; or should I say, a large sized chicken egg.

At dawn after a snowstorm, a Raven is about to take off with his breakfast; a chicken leg.
