I was working outside on my car, when from just above came a Raven's raspy "hello". I always hear their wings, but he silently came over, spoke and was gone. The wind gushed and I knew how he did this trick.The Raven is a master of the wind.I found a Raven feather at my feet.
I just had to come in and tell my wife Sue. She reacted calmly, (she teaches junior high).
I went back out side and through an opening , just above the blowing trees he flew in plain view, cawed something at me,then turned and disappeared. I cawed back speaking jibberish Raven,but I'm confident he sensed I was happy to share such a beautiful fall day with him.

Today as I sat alongside a river, closing an equipment box, a red squirrel, who had been chattering at me, scampered up my back and jumped from my head to the adjacent footbridge. There he sat, reminding me I was a green ladder. -Lora
