We're named after the old ballad about scavenger birds planning to eat a knight's corpse. We love ravens, from Odin's pair to the Celtic god Bran, the North American trickster deity to those that 'gronk' in our chimney! https://t.co/OSAPftlDmN

- “I have spent most of my life in the woods, among the flowers, listening for hours to the birds. 🐦

I have learned many lessons, and the greatest of them all is to know how much power there is in little things.”

“April I open my bill
In May I sing night and day
In June I change my tune
In July far far I fly
In August away I must”
