The theme this week for Round 85 of #featheredfriends is
SILHOUETTES
My silhouettes are of ravens. I know these birds take a bad rap as omens of death and delivering news from the afterlife. But in some cultures they are considered sacred.
The raven was sacred to Native American ceremonies. It always had to be present to transport the energy of the message to its destiny. The raven’s powers also healed people from a distance.

I find these beautiful shiny black feathered birds intelligent and interesting. Always nice to hear them making the shrill croaking alarm sounds from the treetops.
There are a few ravens that visit my backyard to see if anything left for them to eat after the Blue Jays come by.
This one is striking an unusual pose in flight.
