Glossed with purplish blue
Common Raven (Corvus corvax), 25 March 2016
I believe this is the female of a pair. I love the purplish iridescent sheen of her feathers. (The Birds of North America account describes it as "glossed with purple to purplish blue.")
I am reading book "The Best American Science and Nature Writing 2015" this weekend while we are enjoying the OR coast and I read this story this morning:
Hey, Annaliese! Wish we could walk Nye Beach with you! We hope to get up to Oregon some time this year...to visit y'all, and to pay respect to the Elders (Eric's barnacles). :)

I was pleasantly surprised by your post today to go with the theme of my day :).
I have been thinking of y'all all weekend while I search the beach for treasures and stories. Lots of itty bitty by-the-winds on Nye Beach.
