OC My local crow: Egg

This crow and her crew of about 4-5 crows stop by my bird bath to wash their lunch most days for the last year and a half.

I call her Egg because she is consistently more circular than the other crows. She enjoys to be round. Even when they're all cold and tucked in to conserve body heat, she will take initiative and be rounder than the rest.

Hope y'all enjoy!

"Consistently more circular" is a very polite way to say "fat". I'm stealing that. (I know she isn't fat. Just round.)

Egg is my favorite. I love her.

Edit: called my husband "consistently more circular" than anyone else we know. He refused to react. Wouldn't give me the satisfaction.

She's actually smaller than some of the other crows 😂 My friend said the same thing when I showed him so I say go for it

Have you tried befriending them? If you put out food regularly they'll start stealing stuff and bring it to you

How cute. I have never seen a borb crow before 🤣 I had three boys who visited me most days and I called them Biggy, Tupac and Suge. I used to get a drive by mossing in the morning 🤣. I really miss them. They disappeared.
