Koori has gone.
A little while ago there was no sign of him, and I went out, made crow noises and called his name, and he did come for the morning treat but was absent the rest of the time.
Then I called him a couple of days ago and I am sure it was Koori who flew onto the electricity pole but no sooner had he landed than he took off again and left.
And since then he has gone.
I'm sure he has paired, has found no suitable nesting site right here and has gone to a more suitable place.....I know in which direction, but it's not obvious on my normal route. I haven't had time to explore properly yet but will go out taking a good look soon. It will be a high tree.
Of course Koori looks just like any other Crow.
The only way I'd know it's him is by the way he reacts to me.
It may be that I shall never know. But I sense he will remember me and may return some time. I have to leave it up to him.
