Hi Johnny Mac. Lovely butterflies and compliments you've brought.

I'm so clueless...all this time, never knew that the Ravens were named for THAT raven.

LOL. Me too!! I had no idea - I just assumed they were named after the big black birds, I thought because Ravens are known to be pretty tough birds in nature. Hmmmmm.....learn something new everyday!

Quoth the Raven, "Nevermore."

A little bit of trivia for you:

Edgar Allen Poe is buried not far (about 4 blocks) from where I work.

He's burried in the old Westminister churchyard on reene street in Baltimore.

Just thought you'd like to know. :O)
