sandeyeYoung ravens?

What a greedy raven! I threw out 3-4 tit-bits of cheese, and it gobbled them up, and then also went to investigate the chunks of home made bread I had previously thrown out for the pigeons to peck at. The raven picked up one chunk and then hopped to a second, eyeing me as he did so - as if ashamed of being greedy - then he tried to pick up a second chunk, at the same time as the first.
When the magpies fill their beak with as much food as they can cram in, I know that they have young in a nest. I am assuming that our friendly raven also has a youngster to cater for, as he flew off with two huge chunks of home made bread in his beak. (It would be as greedy as if a human tried to stuff two slices of pizza in their mouth at one time!!)

Flashes of memories
We have a group of birds that come eating in our backyard with particularly cheeky young fella. When there is no food out there he comes up to the back door and screeeeches inside for someone to come and feed him!
Unfortunatly a couple of weeks ago the neighbours cat managed to get one so they are a little apprehensive these days. But the crows (or ravens) are a manace chasing all the smaller birds off and then gobbling everything up themselves.
