Notes:
The only photo of Raven I have for the moment... with this bird, I must say I was extremely unlucky. I've been hoping and trying to catch it on photo for a couple of years now. Where we live at present, there are plenty of them... but! I saw it couple of times in Jura range, few times from the short distance... but did not have my camera with me. On the contrary, whenever I had my camera, birds were shy...
The game is still on...
