A few years ago I was driving out of Albuquerque and I turned onto a side street. On the road in front of me were dozens of crows. Of course I slowed down as I approached them, and when I was a couple of yards away they gently rose into the air and surrounded me. In front and beside and above and behind... For just a moment I flew with crows.

Corvids are my favourite birds on the planet. I've watched them ski down snowbanks, fill the inner branches of the 30' Norway spruce and the maples that ringed my house growing up, sail a wind current just for fun, and solve complex problems. My tricksy crow-kin. My companions for life. This song is for them and that day they let me feel like I could fly.
