<![CDATA[WILD ANIMAL ENCOUNTERS]]>Last night something was in our garbage can and making a lot of very loud and frightening sounds. We were sure it was a cat, opossum, raccoon, you know. Something substantial. We didn’t understand why it wouldn’t just come out since the can was on its side. Sent Mr. Tsar to bravely look inside after lots of hushed arguing between us outside the front door.

It was a bird, lol.

We released it into the bushes.

Please, tell me your harrowing encounters with wildlife.

They are not small birds by any stretch, and it’s only the size that marks them out from the other all-black birds. We had some in our corner of Wales - the only birds that were bigger were European buzzards and red kites, since we didn’t have eagles.

tl;dr: Ravens are big.

I think it’s been eating my hibiscus. I tried to get better shots when it moved to the pool AND IT HAD A BUDDY but they ran away as soon as I raised my phone.

This is a pretty tame wild animal encounter but I’m gradually rescuing pictures from Photobucket and found my trip to the Petrified Forest from a few years back, where I met this handsome creature.

The pics don’t convey how BIG ravens are in a way I was not prepared for, but it was a kindly raven. It was clearly used to people and I think was angling for me to feed it. It had a business.

Loki, is that you?

No idea what they were doing, and they flew off before I could even get my phone, but I was shocked to see these animals I’d only ever seen in photos before. I always thought ravens were small, but these things were each the size of a football before they even opened their wings.
