The Incredible Crow
Crows often get labeled as pests when they are actually another incredible bird.
They form strong pair bonds and often mate for life and are very loyal to their family and community.
Crows don’t just live near each other; they support one another and have even been known to help raise the young of others.
They are also incredibly intelligent. Crows can recognize human faces, remember them, and even use tools to accomplish what they need.
There are some great stories shared about the incredible crow and how they have made their way into people’s hearts. One that stands out is a little girl who would feed them on her way to school. Over time, the crows began leaving her small shiny objects…little “gifts” in return. Her mother, who is a photographer, once lost a lens cap on a shoot. The next morning, it showed up in the same spot where the crows would leave their treasures.
I also work with a courier who feeds the crows peanuts along her route. One day, a recipient became hostile toward her, and out of nowhere, a group of crows came down and began to buzz the person until they backed off and left her alone. I wanted to high-five the crows when I was told. 😁
Crows also remember events and respond.
When a crow dies, others will gather around, calling and observing. It's how they learn what happened, and the message spreads quickly. Once they associate danger with a place, they often won’t return.
Crows are another bird worth taking a closer look at.
You might be surprised by their intelligence, their loyalty, and even their generosity.
