Crow & Key Tattoo
Come nesting season, a mated pair of crows can receive chick-rearing help. Juvenile birds are frequently seen defending their parents' nest from predators. They can also be found bringing food to mom and dad, or feeding their younger siblings directly.
Thank you @aaronkempphotography it's always a pleasure tattooing your own mates.
