Poe

"Quoth the Raven “Nevermore.”

   And the Raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting

On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door;

    And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon’s that is dreaming,

    And the lamp-light o’er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor"

-Edgar Allen Poe, The Raven-

Although Poe had a rather bleak and dreary outlook on the Raven, they remain one of my favorite birds of all time.  Sleek black, and wicked smart, they fill the northern woods with haunting cackles and clicks.  Grab one of these sweet 4in black and white woodcut prints to share in my love.
