Really nice to get that angle - I'd guess you were half way up a mountain at the time.

At the three peaks parking area, taking pictures of marmottes below. This guy flew close by and I practically threw the camera after him, hoping for the focus to do magic. I got lucky.

That looks so much like a raven that had its tail feathers and beak swapped out. ~~What type of bird is it?~~

Oops, my brain filtered too much information. My bad ๐Ÿ˜…

When I was there I didn't know what they were. Black as ravens, came relatively close to humans like pigeons, yellow beak like the common blackbird, red feet like idontknowwhat..
