This is just a snapshot.  There is so much more I'd like to do with this idea 
if I can.

Every night around sunset, it seems that every crow in Minneapolis comes to a 
four-block area near downtown Minneapolis to roost.

I've seen them as I drive by - it's fascinating to watch them all flocking in 
from everywhere as the sun sets.

Thing of it is... they are keenly aware of photographers approaching with 
tripods.  They were quite skittish.

What I ended up with was a photo of the 1/3 of them that hadn't left by the 
time I had set the tripod down

..and when I was shooting, I didn't notice they were on the trees further back, 
so I have some revisiting to do so I can place the camera properly.  If there 
was some way to stabilize the camera for a 15-second exposure without using the 
tripod, I would.
