pickThis is a dark tale where a wish transforms a joyful moment of birth into tragedy. When seven brothers fail to return quickly enough with water for their baby sister's baptism, they are cursed and transformed into ravens. All hope seems lost for reversing the curse until the brave little sister embarks on a journey to find a way to save her brothers and restore them to their human form.
pickThis was a great listen. Skaife takes us through his life with the ravens at the Tower of London. You can tell how much he cares for and admires the birds. I learned quite a bit about not just the history of the ravens but of ravens as a species.
This was my April #doublespin
so-soLet's get the uncomfortable truths out of the way. This man had a military career including being a British soldier in Northern Ireland in the 1980s. While his love and care for the ravens is clear, they are captive to the tower as a direct result of his actions: trimmed flight feathers being a part of the 'tradition'. These are realities I can't personally support.
