Crow

Crow (Corvus corone)

From behaviour, this is Charlie - I thought s/he was away nesting, as I'd not seen him/her for ages. The favoured tree that had a Crows' nest for years was pruned back hard, so another place less for nesting. Anyway, could still be nesting locally.

Through the double glazing - which I've started to clean with neat White Vinegar... the glass hasn't melted... yet ;)
