Also critter-related, when I was riding into Seligman a few days back, a huge raven saw me walking the bike up a big hill.

When I hit the top, and started down the other side, he started following me, and doing weird diving tricks in the wind. 😁
He was playing around, flying way past me, then letting me pass him, lol. 😁
I saw some cool stuff online, about spirit animals, and the crows & ravens, considered by some to only differ in size.
I see way more ravens than crows, but that kinda fits. I'm a tall & skinny old galoot, like some ravens. 😎😉
