Edgar Raven and the Egg

 

What's this? A chicken egg on the ground?!

Edgar sits in the tree a while, eyeing it. He flies down to the ground and lands 20 feet away. He casually struts indirectly toward it, as though he has not the slightest thought in his head about A CHICKEN EGG!!!!!, even though he's got his Raven eyeball laser focused on it.

Aida has her head over the edge of the nest looking down and watching him.

Edgar gets closer.

He does the Raven feint/hop away from the egg, just in case it's a trap and it springs at him! Egg doesn't move!

Edgar steps forward and touches the egg and hops away again, just in case (again) it's a trap!

Edgar grabs the egg then immediately drops it!
For real, IT'S A CHICKEN EGG and it's breakfast! He can hardly believe his Raven luck! Because, as you know, Ravens love chicken eggs.

Aida is shrieking falsetto encouragement from the nest. Edgar grabs the egg again and flies away to eat it, then in a circuitous route, flies to the nest to regurgitate to Aida.
