        I don't usually play favorites, but for crows I have made and exception. This article has increased my admiration for them manyfold.

          If I had an army of crows I'd make a point to have some.

            I've always loved crows. Really, most scavenging animals. Raccoons, rats, etc. They are generally very curious and clever. They tend to have personality for days. :-D

              I always thought a murder is the best solution for enemies. EDIT: of crows! A murder of crows!

                We try to attract most birds to our yard, but we also have families of hawks nearby every year for some time now (and for a while a bald eagle). While the hawks are impressive, I wouldn't mind if they moved away. They gotta eat and all - I understand that's their nature. It definitely means we cannot attract crows - they're in all the neighborhoods around, but they clearly have the sense to stay away from the "hawk" neighborhood. It's amazing how you can hear them send different messages. "food here!" and - also warnings, and set up their mobbing behavior when a hawk or two are moving into their territory. They protect their own. If you hear a mobbing going on you can take a walk and find disgruntled hawks trying to set up home.

                  Depending on how you want to measure it Crows are usually the most intelligent or close to most intelligent birds. This of course is not mimicry (teaching parrots tricks) but rather in actual problem solving and learning on their own.

                    A buddy and I went over to the local dairy to do some cow tipping. We couldn't decide. I though $3.00 was plenty but my buddy wanted to tip $10.00.
