Hooded Crow! (Corvus cornix)

Caught in a sliver of sunlight and sitting on a gate overlooking Loch Dunvegan, Isle of Skye!
Scotland is apparently the only part of the UK mainland where these birds breed.

HFF and a large view recommended!

Fotografía con buen enfoque, nítido lo esencial y desenfocado lo secundario.
Ese cuervo no aparece por esta península, como todos conocemos los cuervos de aquí son totalmente negros, como los que se vieron en la película “Los pájaros” de Hitchcoks.
Saludos Roger.
