We've got a one legged
crow frequenting our
garden, must have got
caught in a trap, cut it
right off at the left knee.

Can't be sure whether
pedi-dexterity exists in
Genus Corvus or not,
but he definitely finds it
difficult when taking off.

That double kick to get
wings above ground is
a must for flight, I also
noticed landing issues, a
need to swoop, then turn.

Stumpy has a quandary
in parliaments of crows
especially under the bird
feed baskets where survival
of the fittest is in evidence.

But needs must, so Stumpy
has figured out a solution.
By leaving the rookery a
few minutes before the rest,
he arrives with early birds.
