		<description><![CDATA[climbing vines Originally uploaded by kaiyen I have a few new goals this year, photographically (other than just trying to have more fun with it). The first is to carry a camera with me everyday. This is not a &#8220;photo a day&#8221; project, because I won&#8217;t get something every day that I like. But I [...]]]></description>

These crows kept landing on the tree, flying off the tree, circling the tree, squawking all the time. It was actually kind of disconcerting. The second thing&#8230;this is a digital infrared photo.
