Every morning I go outside and feed the crows, so I love sharing a story about these super-intelligent birds, and this is a story that touches the entire community of Portland, Oregon, and beyond. . .
THE CROWS OF PORTLAND, or more correctly, the OHSU Foundation and LAIKA, is a wonderful Free artistic display that the entire community can enjoy in more ways than one. And, it is local artists who have brought these birds to life.
But the crows' farewell event will be from October 31st to November 1st. So, if you want to see them, get out there now to hunt them down, and be sure to come equipped with your camera to capture these colorful crows. What a perfect way to celebrate Spooky Season and 100 years of OHSU’s Doernbecher Children’s Hospital, which has provided expert health care to our kids and any child in need. Plus, the crows caw-caw to everyone about the upcoming Wildwood Stop Motion magical movie, and you can watch the trailer here: Wildwood movie - Search
Just don’t miss this fun way to celebrate the season with your family and friends because it comes out on October 23rd in a theater near you.
Here are a few fun photos to give you a taste of what these amazing crows look like, so you’ll have an idea of what it is you’re hunting down.
The statues of the Crows will be auctioned off on November
15th.
