I photographed this "birdman" at the
9th Street Italian Market last week. I'm not sure whether that is a
Raven or a Crow. Anyone?
- Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary,
- Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,
- While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
- As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
- 'Tis some visitor,' I muttered, 'tapping at my chamber door -
- Only this, and nothing more.'
