Nicely written Haiku, Sara! Yes, you're right, many words in German are much longer than the English ones, what makes German more difficult (but that's nothing with e.g. Hungarian!!!). Have a nice Sunday and new week ahead...Gert

Very, very cool, Sara! I like the concept of a "crow sentinel" waiting for the corn to appear and then striking. Awesome! Love, Carolyn

My husband has planted corn three times and has tried everything to keep the crows out of the corn patch but they are winning...We don't have a stalk of corn standing..
