You can see them interacting with each other in ways that no other birds here seem to do. I think I remember reading somewhere that Ravens have the second highest intelligence level, behind the Parrots.<br /><br />The woods and meadows I walk through are mostly second growth, grown up from land that, not too long ago was farm and orchard. Our town has undertaken a "nature preservation" policy that, I'm proud to say, they are sticking to even in these hard times. They buy, or are donated land that is to remain forever wild. We have a LOT of invasives, though.Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17692541935507155362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1378084381324788826.post-32262823373883466112011-02-06T06:05:53.632-08:002011-02-06T06:05:53.632-08:00Now, my son-in-law is running for the Green party ...Now, my son-in-law is running for the Green party in Nepean-Carleton, he has a very high IQ, perhaps you mean politicians in office! <br /><br />I love the header of your precious dog.
