Rantin’ and Raven

Not That Mike The Other Mike

“Look, for the last time, you silly bird, there’s nobody named Poe living here! Not only do you have the wrong house, but it’s not even a midnight dreary! So go away and come back nevermore!”

    Yeah. Not even a midnight dreary. Silly crow.

    That’s amazing. They seem to have had that argument before.

    Phone posting so I hope this isn’t gigantic, but I took a picture on my way back from lunch of a fellow who was perched on a sign yelling at passers by. Just sat there croaking away. He ignored me waving a phone in favor of hollering toward a lady pushing a stroller.

      At my old home we had a couple of crows who would sit side-by-side on the church roof “talking” – then they would tap their beaks together periodically – I never figured that out.

        “Giving each other five,” if I remember the expression correctly.

    Holy smokes we have a bit of a gathering here up in Toronto for the Raptors parade. Wow. *everyone behave themselves said in scolding crow voice*

    Just a mere 2 million I heard. No problem FKA!
    Saw this comical remark somewhere…”LeBron doesn’t make it to the playoffs and a whole other country wins”. 😁

    Brilliant post, I love it.

    I am too afraid to ask what a raptor parade is, most probably it is not a dinosaur exhibition, I will google it later 🙂

    I am proud to announce, my sweet Marci ate today unaided for the first time in 2 weeks! Yay maybe there is hope for him after all.

      Emsthemonster, you are so cute! 🙂 The Raptors are the Canadian Basketball team that just won, uh… some major championship, the NBA title? Anyhoo! – I’d go see a raptor dinosaur parade! I can just imagine enormous string puppets of bones…. kind of along these lines? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bc0PoWfPzmI
      Glad to hear about your Marci. xoxo

        This raptor-dinosaur parade is a great idea, I would also visit that. 🙂

        Thanks for the kind words, everyone 🙂

    Reminds me of the famous talking cats video. Maybe klaatu42 will make up dialog for them!

  8. Vanessa Bennett June 17, 2019 / 4:39 pm

    That kitty is sooooo conflicted; do I chat to it or chew it.

  9. Ricky & Bibi's Mom June 17, 2019 / 9:25 pm

    Do we think kitty is the lost Lenore? Who is fed up with the raven?

    Let me just say that I love that Title.
