At the Cliffs of Moher I stood watching a crow playing in the wind. With wings unmoving and extended he soared high on the currents. Then he would suddenly pull his wings close into his body, turn upside down, and dive at a 45 degree angle to a lower level at which point he would turn right side up again, open his wings and float, being carried up. I watched him for several minutes - the only bird playing this way - just down and up and back and forth above the cliff face.

Something you'll never forget. And how nice to have the silent time to stand still and watch it unfold.

How wonderful was that! Mother Nature provides the best entertainment.
"My" wild bunnies Chunky and Notch and their friends hang out, play leap rabbit and wait for me to feed them.

How lucky you were to get to see that--crows are among my favorite birds.
