Thanks for the clarification Ann, I named it "Crow" cuz I just didn't know what
else to call it.
I believe it was take at the rest area at Crystal Forest, but certainly not far
from Blue Mesa. Maybe one of Sam's offspring.
Maybe SAm, actually ---
Apparently ravens can live up to 40 years tho normally only live 12 to
15 in the wild...
Given the friendliness of the Painted Desert -- 20 years is possible...

Took this while touring the Painted Desert a couple of years ago. Came across
it reviewing old files and remembered the issue here if a black bird was a crow
or whatever. Don't remember which camera I was using at the time.

that is not a crow you got there .... that is a raven... raven's are
vastly superior birds :-) also, considerably larger.
it might even be my friend, Sam...
Or his offspring... I'm not sure how long Raven's live, actually...
I bet he was begging for treats.>>
