Crow and I

By Belinda Elbourn

Belinda-and -crowA couple of years passed and we had moved to another farm, when Darren came home with a baby crow that he had found on the road.
 
I named him “Crow” this crow was even nosier than Camry (Darren said this one must be a girl).
 
Crow lived in our sun room, Crow was very smart she new she wasn’t allowed to enter into the kitchen so she would just sit in the doorway and poke her head in to see what we were doing.
