birds in winter

In our newly consolidated plant at work, the sales area has become the engraving area. They are lucky to have inherited the large, south-facing windows. A bird feeder was immediately installed outside. I like to stop over there periodically and watch the activity (note the cardinal). The chickadees & others bring such effervescence and life to the winter months.
The crows seem to come out of the shadows this time of year. They are such an intelligent presence. When you watch them & listen to them, there always seems to be some kind of underlying drama going on that I'm not privy to. There was a guy who used to work here that hated the crows. He used to yell at them, and bother them whenever possible. One day he came to work, and a crow was sitting on the top of the entryway. The bird flew directly over this person, and s%*t on him. It wasn't an accident.
