It is comforting to now they retain superior advantages over us humans in my book.

Corvids are so fucking cool
One of my most told animal stories is about a raven who learned to imitate the iOS message notification and used that to prank people. He’d wait in a tree, make the noise when they were close, and then swoop in laughing if they pulled their phone out, extra hard if they dropped it
Anyways that’s one of the experiences that proved to me that intelligence or consciousness or w/e is not even close to a uniquely human trait. At this point it seems like an insanely arrogant and foolish assumption to ever have made, see also the impossibility of designing a trash can to keep out smart bears but not dumb humans
You’re overcorrecting quite a bit on animal intelligence.
sez u
we had a mockingbird that one of our neighbors hated. the bird learned what his alarm sounded like. it’d go sit outside his window and scream at him as soon as the sun was up.
this was the same mockingbird that meowed at cats to lure them out of hiding then dive bomb them.
I wonder what he did lol
So if I train one how to read, it would be able to read twice as fast as me? 🤔
Time for actual Avian Intelligence.
“Read this and give me a summary, and I’ll give you this entire package of Austin peanutbutter crackers.”
That would work except you have already been trained to read for them, you just don’t realize it yet.
I liked them already before the advertising movie with Brandon Lee
They are a hell of a lot better than coyotes at finding mice behind a combine. I usually see the ravens get 10X the mice exposed in a windrow than any coyote following me around.
I for one welcome our new crow overlords ❤️
They’re only that color because what they can see is dark AF.
Hello darkness my old fCAAAAAAW!
Wife said I’m not allowed to feed the friendly neighborhood crows :(
Keep wildlife wild. While you may be kind and careful, not everyone is. Wildlife being comfortable approaching humans frequently ends in their demise.
Agreed in general crows in particular are super good at recognizing individuals and adjusting behaviour accordingly and I’m not allowed to feed them to befriend them lol 😝
Time for a new wife.
/s
The crows will provide one, when the time is right
They can’t really carry a whole human, that’s why they just bring bones. DIY wife I guess.
Anyone know how to make a summoning circle asking for a friend

We should be training crows to shit on traffic cameras.
I’ve wanted to make crow friends in my new city for the last five years. Always been afraid my dog would turn it into me having crow enemies.
Ha! Yet another squirrel collaborator plotting with the corvids!
We know what you guys are up to!
Sometimes I wonder why avids (corvids) let mammals (us) take over the world. What do they know that we don’t.
That working for a paycheck sucks, and we’ve less “taken over” the world than cut ourselves off from it
It took an asteroid and several ice ages!
This is just birds in general. Animal brains all process time and information differently.
Haha good 💨🖕⚡
Jk crows don’t kill me
