Sir Corvus Splendens Zugmayeri*** , earlier of Anjarle, on the lush Kokan coast, now settled in Bandra, Mumbai since the last generation......
Reflecting on the scarcity of trees he can alight on, in this metropolis, and worried about the competition that exists to scavenge something he wishes to....
Its a difficult life, what with so many wires crisscrossing the sky, all those towers on buildings, such terrible deisel-ised air, and having to fight with eagles and gulls frequently....
The hair is getting whiter, the eyebrows sparser; and although He can see better than most, He stares in anger, speechless, but asks, why this Zugmayeri Zugmayeri Zugmayeri Di ?
Wonderful portrait, Deepak! He does, indeed, look to be posing. Or crowing about something! Our crows have no white...they're all black and very big. And very pesky!
He's a lot better looking common house crow than we have here in Washington!! Great shot as always!!
