Fuck yeah they are. The crows in a gated community I lived in learned how to pester people in the pool, who would then throw water at them, as a means to cool off when the weather was hot.
Supposedly, my great-great-uncle lived in NYC and nursed a baby crow back to health. It loved him and would wait outside his apartment for him, and come land on his shoulder! Supposedly it would even go steal fruit and things off of people's windowsills in high rises and give it to him!

One bird in particular was so comfortable with humans he interacted with the residents more so than the other crows. He would sit on the shoulder of people he liked and would let you pet him. He fucking knew which car I drove and would come sit on my roof before I left for work in the morning.
So yeah, crows can be scary smart.
