Not if they keep their eggs and small chicks protected. If not, as we could see, corvids like crows and ravens can be a problem.fireblade1 wrote: Yes, but the raven is not a problem for the wte. May be I am wrong.

No tricks. It was pure accident, and then make quickly snapshots or shaky video ( ). but there are so many much better pictures from the otter...fireblade1 wrote: Hey Biker

The raven is no problem for the wte. Never heard about that. Not much more than a disturbance. They are neighbours at more places.
No bird today.

There were more than one there.
