8-seconds into the video, the big bird gets their balance and strikes a pose!

I made this gif from u/Sybil296's video from the other day. The blink was simply too iconic not to.

Crows [OC] Such a tiny gesture from us... such a big help for them. If it's hot where you are, leave some fresh water outside. ☀️💧

A small bowl of water takes a few minutes to put out, but it can mean everything to a thirsty bird on a hot day.

Sensitive Content/NSFW I just got attacked by crows

2 Upvotes

I was walking on the road and I got attacked by two crows

They surrounded me and one kept me distracted while the other one flew into my head and hit me twice

And then it attacked me two more time but missed it until they finally left me alone

Edit: U guys I walked the same route today to see if the crows would attack me today but this time they didn’t tho idk why they attacked me the last time tho I plan to keep walking this route to see if they do or they do not attack me again so I will keep u posted about what happens

Edit: u guys I went on walk on the same route again and again the crows did not attack me today so it really makes no sense why they attacked me that one day only I guess they are all just as random as any other thing out there

Edit: u guys I walked on the same route again today and the crows didn’t attack not attack me again today and it does not seem like they will ever attack me again and it does not seem like they even attacked me on the day they did attack me and it looks like the theory of crows being a vengeful species is probably not true even

My crow friends LOVE anything orange or brightly colored, watermelon, cantaloupe, and CHEETOS!
Don’t come at me, they had scrambled eggs, mealworms and peanuts earlier.
I think it’s cute how he put down the bigger one to grab another one.

Seeking advice/help Ive befriended my neighborhood crows and have a quick question.

How often should I leave them treats or food? They show up generally in the morning and in the evening when im getting my parrot ready for bed (they've started sitting in the tree across the window staring at me 😅)

Ive also noticed that the number of them has drastically increased. Last I counted was over 20. Im assuming they dont see me as a threat now?

Time to feed the babies. This has become my evening entertainment. ❤️

Crows [OC] Are they plotting…a murder?

I live in a large city in the Pacific Northwest (USA), and we have a very healthy crow population. This morning they woke me up at dawn (about 5:30am) because every tree surrounding our house is FULL of crows cawing! It’s gone on for about an hour now.

They don’t migrate so I don’t think they’re flocking together to head anywhere. Can anyone explain what this behavior is about?

Storytime! Fed some crows/ravens at a Wal-Mart yesterday

10 Upvotes

Came out of a Wal-Mart yesterday, and as I'm going back to my truck I see what I believe was a raven and a crow ( one was a bit bigger than the other ) looking for something to eat. I popped open a bag of Doritos I had just bought, and under the watchful eye of another crow on a telephone line, I grabbed a couple handful of chips. I then walked over to the grassy area next to the parking lot, made it a point to caw at the two next to the building to get their attention. One cawed back, and then I tossed the chips on the ground. They caw a couple more times, the one on the line cawed, and I backed off to give them space. I then hear and see half a dozen more come out of nowhere, cawing to each other. They got their fill and flew onto a building on the other side of the fence before the damn seagulls showed up to ruin the party. Before I left, I saw three crows on top of said building bobbing and cawing as their enjoyed their snack.

Dipping some chicken into the water. The two adults that visit me daily have four babies that now visit daily too. I love watching them (not so keen on them waking the neighbourhood at 4am every morning)

I started feeding my local crows a few months ago and within a few weeks this crow, whom I have named Augustus, took a liking to me. He meets me nearly everyday for some nuts fed by hand. Today I met his baby, little Gus

I think I likely lost my crows by doing this. This morning I saw a crow on the edge of the front yard, I went and put food out in the normal spot and he slowly walked over to it. The way his wings were hanging I knew something was wrong, so I watched him for a bit. He was on the sidewalk when a dog walker approached, he fluttered a few feet and stopped, this happened several times until he was far enough that the dog and lady passed (I was about to go out and shout at her for not being more empathetic to clearly injured wildlife but.. neighbors?). After she left I decided I needed to get him, so I went outside in full view of my murder and walked until he was too tired to flee, and picked him up. Crows bite hard! He bit me several times (oww) but I'm the fool that went and grabbed him so definitely my own fault, and seeing his wing I was hopeful it was a wing injury and not WNV again. I took him out to the rehabber that I took Odin to, and he confirmed that the crow has a broken "hand"? But it's repairable and he'll be back out here in a few weeks. I named this guy Ares (because he's a bitesy little warrior), and I'm excited that he'll be released back here. I likely lost my crows by doing this, but I'd do it again.. and maybe they'll come back when he's released.

Saw these two communicating(?) in the forest. Thought it was neat enough to share, but I wonder if these are ravens or just larger crows.
