a crow story

I have had several profound interactions with crows and other birds in my life, often at times of great change and upheaval. The following story is about two interactions I had with baby crows, fifteen years apart.

I found a baby crow in the yard.

Well, Jillian found her, actually. She mentioned it in an offhand way, “There’s a baby crow in the yard.”
