Everyday and Curious Encounters #4 - A Crow Taking a Bath

---

Just a crow taking a bath in a well at the botanical garden of the University of Zurich.

Crows fascinate me. They are one of my (many) favorite animals. I learned a lot about crows and ravens in the book: "Krähen. Ein Portrait", written by Cord Riechelmann and Judith Schalansky, published by publishing company Matthes & Seitz.

For example, have you heard about the "ravens of the Tower of London"?

Or were you aware about the symbolism of ravens in Norse culture?
