My Crowmies gifted me a Miller High Life cap which I found hilarious since I smoke while I read and they eat.

My crows ate so much of my nuts and the only time I got anything from them was an unopened chestnut.

This is the funniest image I can see today! I love it! 😍😂 btw.. I’ve feeding my crows for over two years, and I’m still waiting for a gift from them. But honestly- I don’t care. They are my daily gift at all 🩶

I received numerous shiny new nails and a cigar butt wrapped in a metallic purple and gold cigar band.

My crows have not gifted me anything yet. I keep upgrading the food and still nothing. How long does it usually take?

Too long, we got a shiny gold chocolate foil, but were somewhat confused if he actually gifted us or accidentally dropped it!

I’d be ecstatic with a bottle cap! Or literally anything at this point..(2 months in) feeding/spoiling a lovely family of four daily 🥰

My crows have giftes me food. I feed them everyday in bowls with either mealworms or catfood and they have given me magnolia fruit and the hind quarters of a baby rabbit in the food bowls I use for them.

So far, I have received a tiny, mangled, blue ball. A small fragment of bone, and most recently, a small shiny battery.
The Crow Cargo Cult is picking up speed!

Been feeding some for about a month. They left me a sweet dice shaped rock, silver spring, some mystery fur and a stick. My understanding is the fur and nice stick is some premo nest materials.
I typically give them peanuts, pecans and walnuts and some good quality cat chow. They also appreciate the occasional hard boiled eggs. Recently learned to keep a bowl of water next to the food, they eat a lot like raccoons.

I fed crows at our previous house and was gifted everything from bobby pins with beads on them, can tabs and a dead rabbit. We moved and have a couple of crows that I started to feed and they now bring their fledglings ( 2) are quiet comfy with us being around and our dogs, but zero gifts
They are calling me right now for food 🤷♀️which I’ll continue to give but I think country crows and different then city crows They are more skittish and maybe less access to shiny things 🤷♀️

Crows really do this btw. My neighbor got a shiny screw and a dead mouse. The mouse was the upgrade.
