I’m not sure why I like this shot. It’s probably because most of my pics of crows are usually silhouettes. I took this photo three weeks ago while on the Lower Carmans River as it winds through the Wertheim National Wildlife Refuge. This guy is just leaving the ground. I was lucky to catch him while he was still low to the ground. If I snapped the shot when he reached the sky I wouldn’t be able to capture the detail in his feathers. It would be an even better shot if the crow was coming towards me but I’ll take what I can get. JK
