Field Notes

Description:

Slender crow-like bird with a beak that looks like a prosthetic device.

Habitat:

We had gone to see the Kelpies and this bird was striding around as if it owned the place. Result? Everyone else photographed the Kelpies; I shot the bird...0nly it was moving non stop so most of the photos are blurry.

Notes:

My first look at a Rook.
