Ravens and Mountain Ash berries


















My favorite photo from today.  It snowed hard for a while this morning and I was out driving around during that time.  In the ditch along Highway 61 was a deer that had been hit by a car.  The deer had already been worked over pretty well by scavenging animals and the only critters still hanging around were some ravens.  I stopped to take some pictures and of course they all flew off into the trees.  Luckily, a couple of them didn't fly too far away and they landed in this mountain ash tree.  I really liked the red color of the berries in contrast to the dark black of the ravens and the white of the falling snow.
