Observation details
For the first time in over a year, I decided to listen through my OldBird 21c mic during the day while working from home on the computer. Heard the loud, guttural calls of a Common Raven, saved a snippet of the recording, and bolted outside with my camera in hand. Grabbed an excessive number of photos, and watched as the bird soared upwards, joining a Buteo, Accip, and some vultures in a kettle. The bird was calling all the way up. Somewhat distinctive feather wear on this bird. In reviewing images submitted by Joe Sebastiani at Victory Brewing Co in Kennett Square, it appears that this could be one of the two birds he observed. http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S28006324 This is the third time I've observed this species from the yard, but only the first time I was able to capture evidence.
