Yeah, they were awesome. This ne, and one other, were sitting on the staircase to the White Tower at the Tower of London. Obviously, he's one of the Tower Ravens. That's as close as I wanted to get to him, and I wasn't even this close, thank the gods for zoom lens.
He was giving me the same look Ray gives everyone but you "F-Off you silly human, I'm busy." I was in his "territory", each of the mated pairs has a territory within the Tower area, and they get VERY UPSET if they're disturbed. As in biting, and pecking. I SO wanted to pet one of them tho, but I refrained, I didn't need to be nipped. You can't see it in this picture, but he has a white ankle band, which makes him, I think, either called Odin or Thor. How appropriate to all the f-ing RAIN! *lol*
