p.1 #1 · The Patriotic Crow

The Sandwich Trout Hatchery was all decked out for the Fourth of July day. Many small American flags on all the net posts. As I sat in my wagon having some lunch, this crow landed on a rail near one.. Reaching for a camera on the seat it flew off and a few silent words passed from my lips. God was good though as he sent another and even closer to the flag and I got my patriotic crow.

And "they" say that animals are not "aware" etc....

Really - this crow not only knows to stand at attention next to a flag - -

it even knows which flag is the American flag.

Fun fun fun in the sun Lou - -

Super fun capture for the 4th of July

Fun in the sun is right Lil as I had to quit for the heat. I'm not a heat loving person. I prefer trying to warm up rather than cool off. "Throw another log in the wood stove"

Thanks
