Ravens in the Churnet Valley

Due to persecution by gamekeepers in the 19th Century Raven's were not a very common sight in England - however since the advent of more enlightened views about bird ecology and wildlife legislation in the 20th C. Ravens have become more common. This is one of two that were feeding on a dead rabbit in the Churnet Valley today. Photo by Terry Eyre.
