Ravens from mountain tops to our roofs,
are endlessly resourceful, playful and intelligent.
Much larger than crows and have a deep croaky voices,
skilled aerialists, doing rolls and flying upside down.
They mate for life and are affectionate and emotional,
named one Hoppy 'cause he hops on one leg.
