6:45am Berlin Mountain, New York. I drove up over the rise having just passed the woodchuck. A huge doe bounded across the road in front of me. As I shifted focus past her, I spotted the full white moon in the blue sky. A crow with a three-foot wingspan sailed past the moon before wafting over the trees.
