An intelligent gleam in Herbert Halate's large Raven's (or crow) turquoise eyes reflects the amazing capacity to think and acquire knowledge that these wonderful corvids display. Ravens are known to solve problems, recognize different individuals (including humans), and learn new behaviors by observing others. They are playful and have been seen in flight carrying objects such as sticks which they may trade back and forth with others. In addition, they play their own games by dropping and retrieving objects while in flight. They seem to enjoy sliding down snow covered hills and roofs. They will even appear to interact with other animals in a playful way, including Wolves . Herbert's wonderful etching creates lovely feather detail. A single cylindrical-shaped turquoise offering enhances the elegance of this awesome 8 1/2" long, 1 1/2" wide and 2 1/2" tall bird carved from 24 ounces of high quality Pennsylvanian jet.
