Big Black Bird

Not to long ago right in front of the house an oppossum was hit. These big black birds were feasting like it was the last supper. Oh I remember how grossed out I was to see this bird eating the smooshed decaying flesh from the road.
Just last week I was driving to work and glanced out to the right and there was this lone black bird. Almost majestic. Huge! I have never seen a bird that large. I can guess this species to be crows, but I won't flatter myself to think I am right without researching. My first thought was how intriguing he looked. So large with his shining black coat. My mind then wondered to the reason of why he was there to begin with. Waiting for roadkill. How lazy to sit and wait for someone or something else to kill his food and to sort through the aftermath.
It is on that day I wondered if I couldn't just give up meat all together. How lazy am I? I go to the butcher shop and I don't even sort through to find the good parts. How I wish I didn't love bacon.
