Crows Walk in Snow

| Flower Roberts

I have watched crows walking in snow many times this winter.

Three crows in snow

They walk along the ground and sometimes bend over. I wondered if they were poking around for food.

Why did the crow cross the road?

I saw one walk across the road and peck at the asphalt. Was it eating snow?

Crow tracks

Later I found these three sets of tracks on my patio.

Three sets of crow tracts crisscross patio.

All I know is, crows walk in snow.

The Crow’s Wings

| Flower Roberts

I heard the crow’s wings beating the air as it flew silently over my head and landed in the tree next to me.

Blue Ridge Mountains


There are always crows here in the mountains.


They are usually squawking and cawing. They are too noisy.



But I did like the sound of the crow’s wings.

FLOW among the crows.
