#NorthernRaven

Ravens adore eating chicken eggs and this is for those who haven't seen one yet. And in the Grand Valley of Chertsey, Québec, Canada this morning it is -24° at 06:35am.

#Pourboire

Now to whom it may concern I'll explain one little thing here; How Tips Work. It's not very complicated, in Québec, Canada, you just give the same amount as the taxes.

This bottle (worth around 40$) and cash (75$) were received as a tip. So that is a very generous pourboire and that kind of situation happens frequently. But hey, who am I to complain about it? Right?

So thank you very much Madame, Sir, and have a pleasant evening.

Diane the Demoness wants some unshelled peanuts this morning.

Sometimes it's chicken eggs, chicken's hearts, fresh pork meat, pork liver, pieces of whole wheat bread... but this morning it's unshelled peanuts. And of course she wants it now.

Northern Ravens are, the biggest one of their species.

#RavenScent

You know Ravens have a distinguished particular odor like dogs have, which everyone enjoy so much; so...

During the nesting period, Diane has to leave us for about 5 weeks and Jack, her life partner, has to provide her with all the food that she needs while incubating the eggs.

I love them both but Diane is the first one I've meet and the bond between us is strong. During that period I really miss her.

So what I do is just open this big jar, which is full of their body feathers, which I've picked up from time to time, and take a big smell out of it.

And if you have no idea what the smell of a Raven is? Well it's like an amazing "méchoui" roasted outside over a wood fire; or like some kind of aromatic incense fragrance smoked like "Nuit d'Opium".
