I'm a Rookie .......

For a bird that weighs five hundred grams on average this Rook has chosen a rather precarious perch at the highest elevation of a road side sapling, on landing there was a lot of wing flapping and positioning to get the right attitude facing into a fairly strong breeze.

The newly ploughed and harrowed field below will hold a goodly supply of its diet of worms, beetles, larvae and roots.
