Everyone needs a raven.
We have a few members of the crow family out here...crows, ravens, magpies, blue jays.
I once heard a terrible squawking going on and followed the noise to the neighbour's roof. There on the roof was a large raven , two crows and a dead as a doornail gray squirrel. The raven owned that big, stiff as a board ration of rodent
...and the crows wanted to steal it. The crows were careful to not come too close to the heavy beak of the raven and one tried to divert the attention of the raven...then the other crow would attempt....unsuccessfully to steal it.
Finally the raven grabbed it's rigor mortis morsel
and flew...somewhat slowly and shakily away from the crows, who proceeded to follow it , hoping it would drop it's prize.
