8-Year-Old Girl Gets Gifts From Crows She’s Been Feeding For 4 Years | |

| Phoenix User ID: 59057068 United States11/08/2015 02:21 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Where I work there are thousands of crows that show up every single night. They hang around for like 4 hours at night, then take off, and show up the next night. Was reading up on crows because fuck it, interested. Apparently they’re smart as shit. They recognize faces, and can form preferences in people depending on how they’re treated. A wild idea appears. I start trying to piss off this group of crows that hang out in the trees near work. I throw rocks at them, and shake the tree and chase them whenever I can. Meanwhile, the grass crows across the street, just chill by the mcdicks. Every time I go to mcd’s, I get extra large fries, and feed the grass crows. They start to like me, while the tree crows hate my shit. Tree crows throw nuts and try to shit on me all the time (i dodge bird shit like I dodge wrenches now) Grass crows still super bros, and now try to follow me when I walk into mcd’s. I keep this up for a few more weeks, and I’m noticing a bigger divide in the crows. Grass crows now follow me across the road to make sure I get back to work safe. Tree crows getting more aggressive and sit on my building and wait for me to walk out. I’ve created a great war between two formerly friendly nations. World War Crow commences. I am fueling it with french fries. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 70753857  Germany11/08/2015 05:03 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Hi OP, Quoting: Anonymous Coward 70526337 such a beautiful story, Thanks for sharing. Manny years ago I had a similar experience. A crow with an injured wing was sitting in a tree right across the street from my bakery. When I noticed the crow was injured I took care of it by providing food & water. It would not let me touch it....so food & water was the least I could do. This went on for about 2 weeks. While running my shop I sometimes went outside to pick up the paper that people had thrown on the street just to put it inside a nearby trashcan. The crow must have been watching me doing so all the while. By the time its wing was OK again it came to visit me every day getting my attention by picking up the paper on the street & putting it into the trashcan....of course it got "paid" for its work with food and water. Aaah that is sweet!!!! |

Have you heard about how they will teach their young (and other adults, too) which people to avoid by sight? To me that shows quite the level of communication and memory. cool vid, they are smart & know how to have fun. |

But as we all know crows don't own purses with money or gold to go to the shops. They show their gratitude and the little girl kept and saved the gifts. Crows and Ravens know who sacrified to them and they know the pure of heart. Pro Brexit, Pro Nexit, Anti-EU |
