An extreme close-up of a young rook's feathers. While rook feathers are densely black, they have an oily sheen which gives them a particularly colorful appearance in the sunlight. 🖤 💙 💜 💚

Oh, absolutely!! I am enamoured of ravens and crows, and although I have never seen one (I'm in the US, where they are not found), I love rooks to pieces. There is something about their shining eyes, sweet grey faces, and soft throat pouches that just clutches at my heart.

Two of our greatest corvid photographers on this side of the pond are June Hunter and Annemieke Mulders. You can see their work at:
