Inky the Baby Crow

Inky the Baby Crow is a very special bird. A young farm boy growing up in the early 1960s in Oro Township found and rescued a black ball of fluff from the snow in the early spring. Over time a relationship grew between the boy and the bird as he raised his friend with care and love. He learned that a crow is very intelligent and could find all kinds of ways to play jokes and get himself into trouble. It seems he had a special affinity for Grandad and saved his best tricks for annoying the man. He was a friend and a trickster and he loved games. On the other hand, he adopted the farm as his home, giving warning calls and warding off predators. In the crows' world he was known as a sentinel and it showed. Inky was a part of the farm, touching the hearts and lives of the whole family.
