A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
I am a Virginia Master Naturalist and travel junkie. I love to learn and help others learn; and this site continues to be GREAT for both!

Sign In to followAmerican Crows and Fish Crows look almost the same. The most common way to identify between the two is by hearing their vocalization, which is distinctly different from one another.
Photo has since been titled: "Irreverent" because they are copulating - on a church (!) rooftop above the front door - on a Sunday morning ...not to mention they are cloaked in black and live on death

Thank you, gratography!
From Wikipedia: "It is claimed that there are approximately 10,000 three-leaf clovers for every four-leaf clover. However, an actual survey of over 5 million clovers found the real frequency to be closer to 5,000 to 1, double the said probability.
Even so, this probability has not deterred collectors who have reached records as high as 170,000 four-leaf clovers in a lifetime. However, the world record for four-leaf clovers in a single day is at least 166, with the record for one hour being 166, set by an American named Katie Borka on June 23, 2018."

Thanks ForestDragon!
Nice spotting. Tail looks a bit long for a house finch.
Nice find and photo. Adult male Kestrel, I believe.
