RAVENS OF WAR
Ravens arrive to eat the dead on battlefields.
- Ravens are scavengers by nature and eat a wide variety of food sources. These creatures prefer to devour decaying biomass, such as flesh or decomposing plant matter. Scavengers are vital in the food chain. Animal carcasses, or carrion, are kept out of an environment. Scavengers decompose organic matter and recycle it as nutrients back into the ecosystem.
Ravens can detect rotting flesh when flying over land. Their cries include a powerful croaking, often produced in flight.
- Ravens are commonly found in Jerusalem where they nest in high trees.

"Check it out - i'm a crow!"

What a fortunate choice
Of walking places that is. I was going to go for a walk in the park down in the village but instead headed out to Cwm Mawr which is further along the valley. It is a now disused site where once there was coal mining. Now it is a large park where people go for exercise, dog walking and whatever. Walking in the dappled shade of trees I heard the distinct cronk of a raven, and then another answering. And for a couple of hundred metres I was accompanied by the sounds and sight of a pair of ravens. There are more in the valley every year and I welcome and celebrate their return. They are making their way back into England too, even into urban areas round Manchester.
They will pick our bones clean when we are all dead.
