[va-bird] common ravens, prince william county

[Susan Heath <sheath@xxxxxxx>]

VA Birders,

I was surprised to see four Common Ravens feasting on a deer carcass 
along Riley Road just north of Broad Run Church Road in western Prince 
William County about 12:45 this afternoon.  I have seen single ravens 
several times near this area but never four at one time.  It was a 
delight to watch their social behavior around the carcass while at least 
10 vultures roosted overhead in a deciduous tree.

Happy birding everyone!

Sue
