It's nice to see you and Fable again!
Tis indeed.
Ullo U2 😊 Lots o' love !
Fable, my favorite bird !! This video is loads of fun and learning :)
Fable is gorgeous. Her feathers are glossy and looks stunning. What a wonderful life she’s living in ❤
Just love watching. Love all wildlife but favorite are large birds. Have loved Ravens since a child. Such loves. Thank you for bringing Fable's daily cuteness this way.
Absolutely lovely
Geweldig om te zien. Dank je wel, love Fabel 🥰😍
I was wondering if Fable likes the wild ravens, and how does she react if the wild birds come near to her avery.
Tranquility conveyed through a 22 inch screen, much appreciated!
Same here @J Sari it is heaven for me. 😊
I didn't realize how big ravens are. She's a beautiful bird, and obviously extremely intelligent.
I think you were thinking of a Crow , Ravens are bigger
I was thinking the same thing, I didn't realize how big she was!
They are self-confident and great animals🦅💖💜
... and dangerously delightful 🙃
Canadian Ravens are waaay!! bigger than Fable she looks crow size to me.The ones around my place are huge.They are lovely smart birds.I enjoy corvids alot.
She walks out of the aviary SO proudly after hiding her treats! 🤣🤣🤣🥰
Treats? What treats? I wasn't hiding any treats! You didn't see me hiding any treats. . . .
"If there's anything Ravens love to do, is to stab things violently" 😂
New fave toy. Yellow stabby snak wheel!
This was so lovely! I really enjoyed this video. I love that she just bops around all day, doin her own thing. 🙂
Glad you enjoyed it. She's a law to her own 😅
Fable's black feathers are wonderfully shiny.... Thanks Amy for being such a caring mother to your remarkable bird!
One always finds the best of mankind in these kinda videos, don't you?🖤
It strikes me that your relationship with Fable is like a lovely mum and toddler 😊 x❤
Fable looks beautiful and she's not violent--she's enthusiastic--lol. Those other ravens are jealous of her! Thanks for the video, Amy!
Always fun and educational watching Fabel. She looks to me to be very content. Plus obviously she is very well taken care of by Amy as evidenced by her healthy plumage and demeanour.
I've been feeding three neighbourhood resident crows for the past two years with hopes that one day they will feed from my hand. That may never happen but I still consider them my friends as they certainly know me as a treat provider.
I have a family of wild ravens, I thought how cool ot would be to provide them with some fun things to play with, but when I looked up what they might like I saw that they are very wary of new things in their environment, so I didn't want to scare them off, but I love seeing them especially when they sneak up on the squirrels.
Fable looks gorgeous and happy❤️
Amy, always a pleasure to watch you and Fable interacting. She's a funny girl. When I was a youngster, we had a little dog (a circus dog in her own mind) that did many tricks, then immediately took the treats and hid them in the corner, under the buffet, in plain sight. We would pretend not to notice for a couple days, then clean them up, only to have a repeat experience. She provided much merriment. (*V*)
Hi Amy, Fable looks well, her feathers are beautiful. Hope you are well and enjoying the sunshine. Boop boop
A lot of folks misunderstand how taking proper care of birds, domesticated, habituated to humans or wild, really revolves around safety issues. Fable and all your birds are so lucky to have such dedicated and knowledgeable people in their lives! And she sure is gorgeous with her new plumage.
The little hooligan is really enjoying herself. 😍😁
Hope everything's going well for you over in the UK. We haven't heard from you in a while, but as long as you and your humans and birds are well, that's all that matters.
But Fable and you are missed. ❤
Thank you for sharing this. Fable asking for things was incredible. Fable choosing violence and hiding her food was fascinating to watch but hilarious at the same time.
Fable is a real CHARACTER! Never a dull moment when Fable's around and wants to play. She's beautiful and intelligent too!
For people who don't know much about birds: long time aviary people and conservationists here. This is our knowledge and experience.
We don't agree with cages except for old and disabled birds, but birds LOVE a decent aviary. Your average bird flies as little as possible, generally speaking, because it is too expensive energetically. The 'wild' birds you see in the garden etc might look like they spend all day in the air, but that's just because you only notice them when they're flying.
The exception to this rule are gliders and specialised aerial hunters ie seabirds and swallows, because they are shaped specifically for speedy flight, don't flap much and it's fairly neutral energetically for them to be in the air.
Smaller birds are generalists as far as locomotion is concerned; they spend much more time hopping, climbing, walking and foraging than they do flying. They fly to 'do stuff' and that's it- it's not recreational. As long as smaller captive birds have enough room to fly a few metres and back to maintain their health, they are perfectly happy. It's much more important for them to have things to do, see and others to interact with because that's 90% of their natural behaviour.
Larger birds need extra exercise periodically, as per falconry, but generally speaking, hawks etc sit on their arses most of the day in the wild, doing very little. Notice the wild ravens in the sky were gliding on the wind and not labouring; otherwise they would have been fucking about in the trees.
You know you have a good environment for birds when wild birds install themselves around your aviary and spend all day trying to break into it to enjoy the life you're providing for its residents. Also, most domesticated bird species, even after a few generations in captivity, have lost any ability to survive without being pandered to by us. You can't just 'set them free'- they'll die in 48 hours.
There are plenty of shitty bird keepers and facilities and we support their abolition, but the good ones are positive environments for everyone involved, birds and people. You wouldn't suggest wiping out dog ownership because a few people mistreat them. Birds and people have 1000s of years of history together and without this contact with other animals, many people would never get their start in environmentalism, animal welfare and academic advocacy for any number of species and habitats. It sucks that birds need us, because they shouldn't, but people have made a world where they absolutely do, for now. Please consider all of this before ranting against captivity and zoos etc. Hope that helps.
Fable is amazing, so intelligent. People making uneducated assumptions on social media, judging unfairly based on their own bias as to what certain animals should behave like. They seem to think they know better than professionals and people who actually raise them their whole life. They voice their opinions like it’s facts, it’s actually the most disgusting part of social media.
Thanks for another fab video Amy. I don't have Ravens where I live but when I go to my favourite bird watching area I feed kibble to the Crows. They are able to spot me arriving from a great distance and fly to greet me (or rather get their treats). Their eyesight is incredible. They don't feed from my hand yet but they allow me to stand a couple of feet away as they eat.
How long have you been feeding them? The pair I feed, George and Mildred, often arrive with me but the closest they get is 2m/6ft. I’ve been feeding crows in general for the last 2 years and this pair only since last summer on and off. I got more consistent with my feeding for about 6months ago and it seems to be slowly working. For the last month I’ve been taking water and that has been a big success. Mildred loves to drink loads while George fly’s of to stash all the food for later. This week he’s started trying to bathe in his water bowl (just head and neck so far) so I’ve had to get a larger container in the hope that he will get in and have a proper wash.
Here’s a link to one of my crow vids. ruclips.net/video/H7p25IZfURA/видео.html
@@thechumpsbeendumped.7797 Hi ya. I've been feeding the Crows (a group of three) at least once per week, sometimes three times per week, for about a year. I've been more successful feeding mealworms by hand to Robins and Great Tits and meat scraps and dog biscuits to Foxes. I shall be patient and persist in my attempt to hand feed the Crows. Thank you for showing an interest. Good luck with George & Mildred 😊.
i also have acouple wild ones i feed. they love hot dogs.
@@victoriafisher6934
I used to feed mine hotdogs, sausages, ham slices and cheese and they *love* them all but recently I found out that salt is quite bad for them. Mealworms and suet blocks for birds are crow crack and any unseasoned trimmings of meat, minced beef, chicken or pork, unsalted peanuts, grapes all go down very well. There are a coupe of very informative vids on YT on what’s good and bad to feed them. If I can find the link I’ll post it here.
😂Fable and her hiding was brilliant ❤😊
There's my day made :)
Fable never disappoints in her being a star for the camera! I'm amazed you aren't having to deal with a mass amount of ants or other types of insects with all those biscuits she hides 🤣! Your poor elderly dog and being tempted with yummy biscuits haha! Oh Fable you are a very cheeky girl!
I am so intrigued by this bird. Now I see all birds differently.
Good to see you and the family are well
Long time no see. Glad to see you back.
Always so pleasant to watch you two. Thank you for sharing the lovely Fable with the world.
Such a beautiful intelligent bird ❤
ALWAYS a joy to see Amy & her animals. Obviously Fable is a fan favorite; I enjoy seeing your doggies too. Seeing a dog interact with a Raven is a rare treat!
funny lil birb
She ain’t that “little” lol
Hello, We have missing your videos. Let us know how things are going. Blessings L
Wonderful☺️☺️
That Fable is one amazingly intelligent bird Amy! You are very lucky to have her in your life. Hope that you & your family are doing well. 👍👍
I love Fable and your wonderful channel! She's a really intelligent kid in a raven's body --- and lippy to boot! I'm in Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada, and we have a lot of crows --- and the only White (not albino) Ravens on the planet.
white???
Sooo, Spirit Ravens?
Boop Boop ! Hello Fable & Amy ! Always glad to see my favorite 2 Brit girls !
I thankful that bird let be free not to be stuck inside all the time. Important is bird enjoy life.👍
Often when RUclipsrs get this many subscriptions - odd people who can't be bothered to check their selves, come in and try to tear people down. That is usual Bx from some of humanity. Just keep moving on.
How Fable is doing nowadays? I am curious what ravens do at winter. In our street we have two crows, they kind of know me due to I usually hide a nut in balkony, and they visit me each day morning, Take a look inside, and fly away witht the nutshell. I often see them in the squere near by as well.
I love fable, I love the channel BUT OMG the view from your back yard. You are so lucky.
My day just got better watching this. And I was already having a good day. Thank you!
Boop boop ♥
Maybe someday Fable can meet @lokitheraven8703! 😀🐦⬛🐦⬛
If there's anything that ravens love, it's stabbing things violently xx😂
We love that walking strut, Fable! ❤
That is adorable…….her glee at taking the treats to hide them with a happy face and a hop and skip when she comes out of the aviary where she’s hidden the treats! This was a joy to watch, thank you.
I hope you are well❤
"Boop-boop" has become something of a catchphrase in our house over the last few years.
Thank you for another fabulous (no pun intended) installment.
It seems no one's immune to the heat right now, even in Scotland! Great to see you and Fable again. The fence looks perfectly OK to me.. Does the job! Nice one Amy and Fable. KAARK! 🌟🌟👍
Such personality! ❤❤❤
Fable probably considers the wild ravens to be uncivilized lol
What is she eating out of puzzle feeder?
Ferret biscuits...a firm favourite of hers
Thank you for you videos i have a big passion for ravens and i volunteer at an owl sanctuary were there are 2 raven. If even the staff cant find me they know exactly where i will be and thats talking to my mates. They have taken a liking to me but just recently had a bit of a rough time health wise and not been able to volunteers as much. Because ive not been able to the raven are sulking with me 😂. Thank you again for sharing Fable with us
They certainly are sensitive birds and will hold a grudge of you're not fulfilling your part of the relationship. 😅 hope you continue to enjoy your volunteering
She's shy as ever. 🙂
It's like a little kid going to hide candy in their room, so cute.
booping in Scotland, cheers.
I'm so in love with Fable 💕🐦🥰💖 I love her little hops and running 😂😂😂❤🐦 I 💯 believe she has the best life with you Amy 💓💖🐦💗💗
I wish all the birds were as safe and lived like Fable 💕🐦
Lindo vídeo Amy
Obrigado por compartilhar conosco momentos tão lindos.
Deus abençoe cada vez mais você e toda sua Família.

I always wish that she and the raven Loki could meet!
So much fun seeing Fable being Fable! Does she actually get around to eating most of the bits she hides, or do you end up doing massive clean-ups? Thanks for sharing with us.
She seems to manage pretty much all of it. She's always been quite the grazer, little and often! I'm sure she has a few secret caches I don't know about 😅
A boop boop full of love to Fable and family. ❤
I just love Fable so much! 😍 She steals the show in every video. 😂 It's wonderful how much joy she brings people. And my what a charmed life she lives! We should all be so lucky! Lol Boop ❤ boop ❤ Fable!!
I hope Fable is well. What a lovely bird.
Fable like "I gonna stuff them in until my crop breaks"
That's great that you give her some mental stimulation with that toy because I'm sure they really need it since they're so smart! Great job! That looks like a lot of fun too! Love the bright colors! I'd love to know if they can see bright yellows like that.
beautiful place you live :)
It really is. We are very lucky.
when does fabel eat all these hiden treats??
Shes just a wee terrier with wings lol
Fable should get a job as a children's toy tester. If she can't break the toy, it's safe for a 5 year old.
LOL ! When you asked her what she was doing... I could almost hear, I'm not doing nothing, just like a kid. I love this channel 🌹🌹🌹
I would have fun eating my food out of that thing as well. And I'm human.
So good to see Fable looking so shiny and amazing. Couldn't have made it through the pandemic without her!
Fable is fine, no worries .
Thank you! Fable is such a sweetie, such a smart bird! Boop Boop!
My dog Lucy loves to watch Fable as much as I do. Thank you so much for sharing.❤❤❤
In the sun you can really see the blues and violets of her wings, it’s so beautiful
I recently saw a wild raven. We have lots of crows around here, but almost no ravens, so it was a nice encounter. The raven was at a parking lot where I parked and unlike the crows it was just talking to itself. I wish I had had something to feed him...
Get a bag of peanuts at the pet store or Walmart and keep it in the car so when you do get to see them you can give them something to eat (or bag of dry cat food). Ravens and crows love both 💖🐦🐦💓
@@missanella Thanks for the hints what to feed them. I think I'm going to do that. Not at Walmart (doesn't exist in Germany any more after they found out the hard way their employee rules don't trump German law) but at the super market that I did visit when parking there... ;-)
My mom tried to feed them but they didn't like what she offered. All the rest of the songbirds did, though. ;-)
what are the treats made of???
When Fable leaned too far and caught herself with her wing 😂
She’s so beautiful I would love the job of taking care of her you are so lucky Bless you Love your videos Muahh !!
Did Fable marry?
She is really beautifull and very eager and Clever 🎶🖤🎵
Prim lookin stargazer she be love. Fable for guvnah most propper. Healthy girl. More vids to come I hope.
The bit at the end, where Fable’s bouncing right in front of your feet… It reminds me of a cat 😆
..violent toys in 2024 = BIG NO-no. Yes?
EDIT: I'm a Jute from DK = bad sense of humor(GoogleAI...learn it)
Coyotes have been eating my stray cats so I know what you mean about having a safe place to call home for Fable.
Boop boop.
Oh no!😢 so sorry to here about your strays…I have many ferals that I feed daily. I’d be devastated if another animal ate them. So happy there’s no coyotes in Philly!
That's horrible 💔💔😭😭
Yes, many years ago, an acquaintance of mine lost one of her cats to coyotes--and she was right in the city (quasi suburbia, but still, the city)
Fable is looking just gorgeous. Her plumage is so glossy and iridescent…..she’s one good looking lady :) Interesting to hear she’s not fond of the wild ravens, I was wondering if you ever had any issues with them. Hopefully it stays in a state of detente with each ignoring the other(apart from the odd raven swearing contests lol)
I had to laugh at her caching. I used to have rats, and they’re great cachers of food. I had one , who would overnight, systematically empty her food bowl and deposit everything in her hide. That ofc meant that it was often so stuffed, she couldn’t fit into it, so in a feat of murine logic, she’d go sleep in her food bowl lol. Another would do the same only to have a cage mate take it all and move it elsewhere……it was very funny to watch. One of our Australia magpies(they’re naturalised in NZ) would, rather less cutely,try to cache food in your hair!! Fruit, sticky but not so bad, meat, not so much lol. Aussie magpies are behaviourally very like corvids, but apparently are a variety of shrike. Anyway, they tend to be thought of as pests, but most people with a farming background either had a hand raised one as a pet, or knew someone who did. They were usually kept like Fable, able to free fly.
Very interesting comment, thank you.
Fable: “I know how many subscribers you have, and you are letting them ALL know where my hiding spot is?? My heart is broken!”
Only two Ravens, a pair on one estate. She would definitely be upset about trespassers....Thanks so much for sharing!
😅💜💙😁
the blue tinge in her feathers when the sun is at a certain angle is just amazing to look at. She is really beautiful. oh, just noticed, copper at others angles ... wow.
Very fun & relaxing as well as informative. Thanks for having me over -
Do those wild ravens comes down for a visits? if they do, what Fable's reactions?
Boop boop
