Crow Socials


A solitary crow doesn't make much sense, because it's rare in nature. When they're together they're given to kibitzing about life. A crow separated from the crowd starts calling around to get its community bearings.

 
It's likely to fly up high or perch on a lookout to get reconnected, to see and be seen. Often times a few mild clucks or caws is enough to draw it companionably close.


In togetherness crows can relax to soothe life's little imperfections and restore order to feathered souls.


They mark such blessed moments with affection, with the surety that sharing feelings sustains relationships.


From there it's no problem to welcome a third brethren into the harmony of Three Amigos on a Wire.


Once bonded, they're prepared for the bigger tests of sustenance and survival.

 
Going it alone is chancy. There are hazards and heavyweights out there in the big wide world.
