Crows are attentive parents and there is no indication or support of what you so slanderously insinuate.

Well I got bird house nests with blue tit juveniles on my balcony every year. They are very attentive at any chance eating them.

[–] Melatonin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 21 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Oh yeah, they'll eat other birds and chicks.

It is cawcaw season on my roof.

They eat road-pizza squirrels as well. Although they're scared shitless by the still-living ones.

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 3 points 10 months ago

Oh, other bird's. Was wondering what you were talking about. Crows are good parents.

Crows are so shy, it's too cute! They're like cats, if you stare at them or lock eyes, they get really nervous. So slowly close your eyes and look away to put then at ease. If you pull out food they like, like peanuts in their shell, you can almost see a little exclamation mark appearing above their heads, like 🥜 ❗ 🐦‍⬛

I saw a crow this morning carry a French fry up to the roof then look at it for a bit and hopefully around listening for it's buddies then it just flew off and let the fry roll into the gutter

- Gang up on hawks
- Get chased away by solitary bluejays and squirrels

Happend in my street last year, chick didn't quite have flying down and fell out, local cat going for a stroll got suppressed under a car from the crow mafia that had turned up.

Meanwhile my local crows just sit there looking aggrieved while a single squirrel eats all the peanuts I put out for them. I don't understand it at all, but squirrels must be seriously badass, at least as far as crows are concerned.

This spring alone I have seen crows harrass buzzards and even a heron.

They all fled of course, the heron looked like it was in some trouble as it could barely avoid the buildings in its way.

I like watching the grackles go about their morning routine, but I rarely see true crows where I'm at.
