I would like to dedicate this short study to my friend and colleague Francesca Rochberg whose work on divination, observation of the natural world, and appreciation of crows have all been an inspiration to me. This work is also dedicated to her friend, Jim, the baby crow she rescued and raised. Together they showed me what should have been obvious—the value of getting up from my desk to pay careful attention to what was happening outside my back door and then taking what I observed back to the way I understood and translated texts.
