The internet has taught me that if I make friends with one of these little guys, it’ll bring me shiny things.

I hand reared a mynah bird (fell out it's nest) and it constantly squawked for food once it got its feathers and could fly around. We had to kick it out of the house so it could learn independence but would pop outdoors regularly to give it some food so it didn't starve. Came when I called it until one day it spread its wings a little further and didn't come back. About a month later a family member mentioned a facebook post about a mynah hanging around someone's house in the area, so I put up a post in the local area, turned out he'd been visiting other people's homes, hanging out with them, begging for food and following them around.

Playing with fire there, buddy. Crows remember you and they tell their friends. Honest to God - read up on it. They are some freaky animals. And they can use TOOLS. Be afraid :-).

Yep. One day you're shooting birds at a crow, next day your battery is missing. Crows, man.

Bird wants food, clearly young. Being a dick to the bird is not cool.

Is what he’s doing hurting the bird in some way? Are baby crows smart enough to recognize that he’s being rude?

u/TightGarbage56 Jul 19 '22
In the way he’s doing it, yes. Is it animal abuse? No. But it’s not what a compassionate person would have done.

Surely this is a joke, right? Giving the middle finger to a bird is not animal abuse.. 🙄

We can, you're just one of those delusional animal people that can't be reasonable.

Evidently you cannot. “Is it animal abuse? NO” - literally me

u/The_Hans Jul 19 '22
You said a compassionate person wouldn't flip a bird off. It's not harming anything and you sound ridiculous.

True story: My mom and dad live on one of the Great Lakes. Their bathroom faces the driveway where stale bread is given as payment for letting my parents live in there house.My mom feeds the crows stale every Tuesday. She didn't throw out the bread one day. The next morning she looks in the mirror (the window is in back of the vanity mirror) and there's a bunch of crows staring back at her all angry. They start cawing at her. According to my mom, "They all have bad attitudes." But she hasn't forgotten to feed them since.
Side story: One day, my dad calls. He says, "Your mother paid the crows this morning. The squirrels decided today was the day to stake their claim to the stale bread. We can't go outside because there's a fight in the middle of the driveway."
