Drove all the way up to the top of Beechwood at the end of the day to see if the big roost was still on at the campground in Brush Canyon. Sort of. Apparently it has moved to the Branson Caves quarry – famous as the entrance to the old TV batcave. So with the binoculars I could see a party going on in the big bowl of the quarry, but could not see inside, and of course you have to drive all the way back down to Franklin to drive back up to Brush Canyon. Didnt’ really make it in time. So there you go. I did get a super-close-up look at a pair sitting atop a telephone pole near me, and for the first time really saw ravens “kissing.”
