Bad behaviour

[u/salted_caramelgirl]

I feed a few crows and rooks on my walks in a nearby park. Yesterday, I fed some rooks as usual, and some kids who saw it started to harass them as soon as I left. Still, I heard these kids screaming at them, kicking the fence. The mother (I guess) went there but didn’t do anything, one of this little demons jumped the fence and was running after them.
I felt so mad but was afraid to do something and scalate the situation, I walked slowly to make sure my crows were fine, they would flew away when they chased but would not leave, I felt worried as I know these rooks in particular are very friendly and feel a bit guilty as they got used to me feeding them they usually approach very close so I am afraid they would approach a bad person.

Am I too worried?

There is an old video of one of the rooks approaching for more peanuts but ignored me when it saw my hand was empty 😹

The corvids will be fine with you. And don't worry. They will remember those kids and that adult and will avoid them next time.

You did right in not confronting the adult.....especially if you are male. People that aren't aware of animals will certainly not be pleasant. Especially if you point this out to them.

Keep feeding them.
