Well, to be honest, the last place that I thought I'd be seeing something pretty was at the local Wal-Mart. But fortunately, I was carrying my camera when I did. These little birds were walking around in the parking lot, and because they're used to a lot of people being around, they let me get pretty close to them. So here's a crow trying to find love in the parking lot.

I miss being out in the boonies where I could see all kinds of critters all the time. I've always been a country boy, so being in a city even after this long still feels odd to me. But finding other wild things here, makes it a little more bearable.
