Looks like she had an itch she couldn't reach! Wonderful images. The crows are carrying on outside my window as I write. Noisy smart birds.thanks for sharing, you have really captured their "personalities"

Nice captures and story to go with them. You managed to get the blacks right too.

It's called allopreening. Some bird species show this grooming between members of a mated pair. Since it's spring down under, the birds must be gearing up for the nesting season.
