Gossipers and debaters

ROOKS have always fascinated me. It's something to do with their imperious presence. They strut around as if they own the place.

Together they create an almighty racket, gossiping and debating, imposing themselves on their fellows, eager to make a point. Thus, this picture is called A Conference of Rooks. Like it or loathe it, there is something quite vivid and dramatic about it. Enjoy.
