Aussie Crow by Chris Armytage™
© 2010 Chris Armytage, Fine Art Photography, Daylesford
This cheeky young crow watched me while I photographed the muscovies and mallards by Daylesford Lake, refusing to leave until finally I took his photo. Then he looked me in the eye, nodded his his head and flew off … I hope I’ve done him justice, it was a very special moment!

You have made this crow into a magnificent work of art! Such a look in his eye, and I love the story about how this photograph came to be! Crows are extremely intelligent birds. Just watched a great show about them recently. Nicely edited as always!!
