I also want to say, as I mentioned the other day, the ravens don’t always want to come near me, so I respect the distance and don’t chase. I’m also not in the habit of feeding them (or any other birds). As someone who cares deeply for birds, I recommend following local ordinances and practices, common sense, and the ethics of interacting safely with wildlife.

I first saw Jerry on Sessions at W 54th late at night on KLCS when I was a senior in high school. He was playing with Viktor Krauss and Bill Frisell on a song I would later know as “Gimme a Holler”. This was in Frisell’s Klein era so there were two cool, weird guitars I knew nothing about—remember, no google or YouTube back then. It was, and still is, one of the most beautiful sounds I’d ever heard.

While I was waiting for birds I heard acorns intermittently falling onto a parked car and assumed it was a woodpecker but when I looked up I saw this Amazon. I didn’t know they ate acorns, and I’d never seen one with so many different colored feathers on the head. Almost reminded me of a lorikeet!

I’ve spent enough time with Ravens to know they’re not always in the mood. But every once in awhile—maybe it’s part of their PR campaign for the Halloween season, or maybe they just finished eating or preening—they’ll humor me and stick around for a moment where they seem just as curious as I am. A genuine “who’s watching who” scenario when I suddenly realize I’ve forgotten to breathe.
