Ravenous ravens

Ravenous ravens
I'd just sat down to have a coffee and a pastry for lunch at Rottnest Island, when I saw this Australian Raven on the fence only a few metres away, so I grabbed the camera to get some shots. I'd been warned that these birds can take food, so I placed one hand on the food packet, while taking this image. Suddenly...whoosh... another Raven flew in and took the pastry from under my hand without even slowing! The result was the PiP image, with the local mob feasting on my pastry. At least I got the photos. :-) I've now added what I think is an appropriate musical link.

Happy Fence Friday and have a good weekend, everyone.

The thieves often use this technique: one distracts and the other steals!
In fact, the ravens only imitate humans.

Thank you, yes there was certainly an element of collusion there I feel.

A great set of captures here. Cheers for the extra dialog explaining what happened. All this reminds me of our ravenous seagulls around our coast that seem to plan as a team how to steal food. Well done.

HFF, have a great weekend. Herb

tiabunna club has replied to Herb Riddle club
Many thanks indeed, Herb. I must admit I've not previously seen what seems like such collusion - either way, there are no second chances! HFF and have a great weekend.

Many thanks, Rosa. Yes, I was thinking of Friday photos while taking that shot - but obviously should have been a little more generally alert! HFF and have a great weekend.
