Martel and Hawthorne

8 a.m. Two ravens on a telephone wire. Allopreening. One raven (?) further down the wire, preening tail feathers.

They seemed small - sometimes I am never sure, but there is something about ravens that makes it so clear they are not crows. Is it the large, sharp beak? The peaceful demeanor? But unless I see them in flight, the doubt is always there.

These might be the same odd trio that I’ve notice on the new “luxury apartments” that have just been completed at LaBrea and Hawthorne, with the raven-friendly metal railings around the roof patios.

    Now I think they were crows. So hard to say sometimes.
