Great shot Matt, love the details in the beak and chest feathers.

"You have to milk the cow quite a lot, and get plenty of milk to get a little cheese." Henri Cartier-Bresson from The Decisive Moment.
I most likely got a bit closer than what is shown on the image. However, I also cropped the daylights out of it. As far as the raven is concerned: they are all used to people in the Rockies, they don't care .... as long as there is something to eat, they don't mind someone getting closer....
