Wonderful capture of that little fellow. Good job on those hard to photograph black feathers!

Very nice capture Matt. Love the detail captured in the upper mandible "stache".

[Wicked Dark]

oh he's beautiful - the feather detail you have in the shot is stupendous. and I'm so jealous. I love ravens. Even to the point of wanting one as a pet. don't have a spare room though.

Shot looks like you were close. What a relaxed bird!

I most likely got a bit closer than what is shown on the image. However, I also cropped the daylights out of it. As far as the raven is concerned: they are all used to people in the Rockies, they don't care .... as long as there is something to eat, they don't mind someone getting closer....

Great shot Matt! ... The shot in the makings pic is pretty cool too :)
