five crows for silver,
six crows for gold,
seven crows for a secret that's never been told.

Nice words Maree! I believe it if you are saying they are intelligent. I just love them! I always have the feeling you can easely make contact with them. I always talk to them en have the feeling they listening and know exact what I am saying.
ReplyDeleteAnyway: your sketches are beautiful!
Thank you Renate! And you're right, they DO listen and I really think they understand and take their cue from tone of voice and body language.
