  • My Japanese Crow Friend “Kah”
    Many people are commenting that this a raven without reading the description here first... Please try to read or simply have a look at the description on videos before commenting. It gets really sad to see so many people ignore the details on why this is called a crow rather than a raven. Nearly 4 years later and people are still commenting before reading first…
    This video was shot in Japan. There are two major types of crows in Japan, the "hashibuto-garasu" or Jungle crow, and the "hashiboso-garasu" or the Carrion crow. To me, it's a little difficult to tell the two apart, but I believe the latter has a slightly larger body.
    I used to have a friend crow named "Kah" come and visit me every day when I came home around the same time, but there were usually two that would come to visit, so it's difficult to know who is who. Generally, I call all of them "Kah" as a joke.

    It's a Large-Billed Crow not a Raven, they're found across eastern Asia so most people who don't live there will probably get this wrong.

    I have 30yrs experience in the avian field. Having "hands on" experience with everything from Warblers to Birds of Prey and Budgies to Macaws. And i can tell you that this folks is a Jungle Crow they are prevalent throughout Asia especially Japan where they are considered a nuisance. However, "Corvids" which comprise of; Ravens, Crows, Rooks, Jackdaws, Magpies, Jays, and Nutcrackers are one of my favorite species. Simply because of there sheer intelligence. They can figure out complex puzzles and even learn to talk as clear as any parrot can sometimes even better. I think this is really neat how this Jungle Crow befriended this individual. And as you can clearly hear they have a specific vocalization for how they are feeling. I think it's great how people learn more about this marvelous birds as they've been painted in a VERY poor light in terms of representing evil and the like. On the contrary they are HIGHLY sociable creatures with a complex yet strong family bond towards each other and as a flock. They also help to clean our waste and alert other birds to signs of danger. They truly do have a special place in my heart. And i always love getting the chance to work with these beautiful birds.

      In Japan they symbolize alot of good things, they are messengers of the heavens and symbolize guidance as an old legend tells of a three legged crow guiding someone, also a three legged golden/red crow (it used to he ten crows) servers the sun goddess in Chinese myth

He came with another larger crow that I haven't seen with him in a long time that actually mouth fed him the food that I gave them. haha It was really cute.

      The lady who lives in the first apartment there next to the entrance was feeding him, I think. Then I started doing the same in front of my room, so he eventually got used to me. This was a long time ago now, so I haven’t seen Kah since… There were two new young crows that I saw perched near the other lady’s room the other day, so she might be feeding them again… I might try to get their attention with food or water the next time I see them. ;)

      I think someone else was feeding him, so I saw him around the apt a few times. I got to feeding him over in the park for awhile, then I moved over to my front door. He just got used to watching for me to come home, so he’d fly down as I got to the door.
