Crows

More Worzel Gummidge than Fukase. And rooks rather than crows. Ludwell, Dorset. BW400cn.

That's a great set of crow/raven photos you put up, Lynn.

Thanks Pete. Ravens around Dee Why lagoon. It was an overcast late afternoon, light spots of rain, very quiet, and as I walked they kept watching me or doing fly-by's... creepy!

Richard tells me the collective noun is a murder of crows

Here's some more taken in 2011 at Long Reef, in much more cheerful weather. I'd originally identified them as crows, but after more research I think they're Australian Ravens:
