Beware the crow's tongue!

Legend has it that by splitting a crows tongue, it can be made to talk.

Who told you that? Ha ha. Expert silhouette here - you know, I watched Hitchock's The Birds again only last week on DVD - many filmic secrets are revealed, including filming birds like this one!

@Sidonie: I am chuffed you enjoyed this silhouette as this photo began it's life blurred. I had a better shot but the pose wasn't quite as interesting and the tongue not as obvious. Cropping, sharpening and fiddling gave this result.
