It was our distinct pleasure to bestow Upstart Crow Studios highest award to Edgar Allen Crow on Saturday, June 20th. The lovely Edgar turned the ripe old age of 21 years and despite her tragic beginnings, she has managed to fly above her circumstances making her the perfect Upstart Crow.
Stage Door cast members put together a small tribute on Edgar's behalf, as well wishers gathered at her birthday party at the Cascade Raptor Center in south Eugene. Edgar is the darling of the Center and greets visitors with her infectious laughter (caw, caw, caw) and her easy going "oh well". From the time she crawled across the highway to an elementary school in Veneta, she has adored children and become a human imprint. The children fed her leaves of bugs and worms and she even had her very own cupcake.
Edgar was presented with a certificate declaring her an honorary Upstart Crow. Signed, sealed and delivered this certificate bears witness that anyone (or any bird) can rise above their circumstances and use their strengths to overcome their weaknesses and truly become someone to crow about!
Happy Birthday, Edgar!
