Love those Crows


Another poster from the Anti-Palin rally in Anchorage...1500 people attended..that's a lot of people by Alaska standards.
Crows play an important role in the mythology of most cultures, and it is no different here in the Pacific Northwest. Crows are important teachers and companions in the stories of the Native Peoples of this region. A wonderful book, In the Company of Crows and Ravens, by John Marzluff and Tony Angell, is a must-read for those interested in these so-human-like birds.
