Re: SPOOKY! Genius crow had to be removed from scientific experiment
I know this will generally be scoffed at, but I experienced a supernatural telepathic exchange with a crow on a golf course in Colorado some 16 years ago. I had hit my ball into the rough on a long par 4 with over 220 yards to the green. I was preparing to hit a punch out to set up a reasonable third shot when a crow landed on a branch of an aspen tree 20 feet parallel to my position. I was distracted by the noise and looked at the bird which was staring a hole in me. I heard a clear voice in my head say "use the three wood." I was startled, but played it off as my own mind having fun and addressed the ball with my iron. The crow cawed again and the voice interjected "take the advice." I was overcome with the thrill of having what seemed to be a bonafide supernatural encounter, and I turned to my back and traded the iron for my three metal club. The crow didn't move but kept watching from his/her perch. One practice swing later, I launched into the ball, and amazingly the result was a beautiful trajectoried shot that landed softly on the green, a one in a thousand outcome for a player of my skill level. I turned to the bird who had apparently watched me throughout the shot and was overwhelmed with a feeling of gratitude as it flew off without further comment. I have yearned for a similar experience since but nothing of this nature has ever surfaced since.

There are indeed more things in Heaven and Earth than can be dreamed of by own impoverished philosophies.

Re: SPOOKY! Genius crow had to be removed from scientific experiment
I grew to really love birds after we bought our first property in the Hinterland and started feeding Kookaburras. Of course all the other birds soon cottoned on and we had all sorts turning up for a feed.

I learnt how clever they are and that we should never underestimate their intelligence.

We sold our home and moved further out and now reside at the top of a Mountain. We have not been here very long but already have a Magpie couple who have worked out how they can get food by sitting on our outdoors table singing to us.

Birds do get to know who you are and do learn to trust you. Such lovely creatures.

Re: SPOOKY! Genius crow had to be removed from scientific experiment
A raven was sitting in a tree near my house and it was saying Hello.

I could hear 'someone' saying Hello from in a patch of trees so I went walking out there, no one was there so I thougth maybe a parrot escaped from someone's house. ... the voice was weird, of course.

I looked up and there it was, the raven. Saying Hello.

Re: SPOOKY! Genius crow had to be removed from scientific experiment
One raven in the experiment figured out how to work their rock/box contraption first, then began teaching the method to other ravens, and finally invented its own way of doing it. Instead of dropping a rock to release a treat, the future Ruler of the Raven Kingdom constructed a layer of twigs in the tube, and pushed another stick down through the layer to force it open. The bird had to be removed from the experiment before it could teach any other birds how to do it.

Re: SPOOKY! Genius crow had to be removed from scientific experiment
I had a hatching of baby crows on my property this year. They were walking around picking leaves off my newly planted blueberry and apple trees.

I placed two careful shots with a pellet rifle right at their feet when they touched the leaves and they stopped. Just like that. Now they walk around the ground-bee infestation I have and eat the shit out of them.

Funny how they just walk around my yard for hours. There's a parent bird and 4 babies. They kind of just hang out pecking at shit. Haven't seen them in a few days though.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 71920501


There are loads of crows at my place (old farmhouse with fields/forestry around it.) When I feed the horses one sits on top of a half-fallen tree and calls out to the rest, three notes, same every morning, then they come for the grain I put out for them. They're polite too, I've a female pheasant that almost eats out of my hand, they wait for her to finish before eating.

This year they nested in my front porch, just above the door. I thought that strange because they usually nest really high up, but they stayed and hatched out fine. I really like them.

Re: SPOOKY! Genius crow had to be removed from scientific experiment
When I was a little kid, we had a crow. We had bought it from a traveling zoo like they used to have back in those days. He had white on them so I must've been Canadian but he could talk and do all kinds of silly things. So one day my dad and my grandpa were working on the barn and they had a bag of nails sitting on the floor in both of them noticed that the crow was packing around on that bag of nails and a little later when they went to pick the bag up the whole bottom fell out of it! The crow had perforated the bag and then set up on a rafter and squawked and flopped its wings and basically laughed it's ass off when all those nails went all over the floor. I love that crow bat he met a female from the timber nearby and she started to visit and come to the yard and he would go out and talk to her in one day they flew off together. I used to go to the timber and calli him but he never came back. 😍He lived happily ever after

Ravens perform better in bartering tests than orangutans, bonobos, and chimps.

And

Ravens can “select, save, and later use either a tool or an exchangeable token that acquired functionality” both 15 minutes and 17 hours after being taken.
