Paint Party Friday - Raven


 I am sharing a Raven with you for Paint Party Friday.  It is based on a photo I saw at the Canadian Wildlife Federation site. Here are some interesting facts on the Common Raven,  'it is an important inhabitant of our ecosystems, helping nutrient cycling by consuming carrion and controlling prey populations.'

I saw one today, well at least I think it was a raven. I get mixed up with ravens, crows and rooks.

What a beautiful painting! I like how noisy ravens are! there are some ravens (or crows, not sure of the difference) that hang out at one of the playgrounds we like to visit - they are always so cheeky, trying to unzip the bag sitting on the bench while I run around with the kids, and sit there and caw away at us as we play! Lovely birds, but so cheeky!

Hope that you are having a good weekend :) We enjoyed the summer-like weather yesterday at the playground :)
