I like crows not because of James O’Barr, Brendon Lee, Carlos Castaneda or Irish cock and bull mythology. It’s not because of the crow’s “nevermore” reputation, their association with a trendy dark underworld, either. This spooky crow profile was unfairly earned during the plague, when crows plucked the eyes from the dead. Well, yes, they did. It was good eating — food on the run. Eyes of corpses are hassle-free…
