One thing about crows is that they share information about food resources with other species of birds and other animals, and they share, they are way different than other species of birds
I carry raw peanuts for them, and they follow me around town. If they're hungry, they do a fly-past at head level...from behind...and then land right in front of me. I think if I gave them egg yolks, they'd want to move in with me...and my condo won't allow pets. 😄
I feed Crows in about a 1 1/2 sq mile radius close to downtown seattle. Different flocks follow me from the moment I leave my apt until I enter the building. I have had over 100+ waiting outside my apt. We have routines every day. They have gifted me items such as a fake gold chain, belt buckle, even a silver heart shaped pendant because the cat kibble is shaped like a heart. They are loyal to a fault. Someone leaves massive amounts of dry cat food out for them about 4 blocks away but still if they see me they will escort me home every day, every time. The "fly past" or if they bump you I see as a sign of trust, friendship and playfulness. Some of the ones I feed I have known literally since they have came out of the nest.
Where do they leave their gifts for you? There's a huge grassy field with trails leading along some hills behind my place. If I were to feed them as I walked on the trail, would they leave their gifts along the trail on the trail itself, or would they scatter their gifts throughout the field? Is it best for them if I feed them in the same spot each day without feeding them while I'm walking? @@erikgification
Been feeding crows for years. Make egg bites for them. That would be scrambled eggs with a little bit xxx done you cut them into little squares! Crows love them! I am disabled so I scooter around town in a scooter and carry a jar of peanuts with me. If the crows see me they will stop on a wire and then all will gather and they wait. Knowing that I have peanuts and I'm going to throw some down! Love me a crow!
It's amazing how each has a distinct personality. One crow grabs all he can, another is impatient and eats his peanut right there and yet another goes through the nuts as if it's not sure which one to choose.
@@TheUtuber999 interesting , how we study this bird. they are youngest all bird and also most smartest. just like human we are youngest of all homo in history and great ape yet we are also most smart.
I've been feeding a pair of ravens for five years, and they don't allow others of their kind, hawks, or falcons to enter their air space. I refer to my front garden as the lunch box. A couple of hundred birds feed their every day. Its like they take shifts. And the special one's come in between. I have even taught the stellar jays to talk. I dream of being a bird 🐦.
@suzengreer1416 ya crows are amazing. I've seen them harass a very large eagle. So much so I got very worried about the eagle getting knocked out of the sky. Crows aren't protected. You might be able to buy one. Oh, neighbor illegal killed a bear. And it died on my property. Had a swarm of vultures. The ravens laid low. Then went after the stragglers. They own the sky again.
@@suzengreer1416Start feeding them in the parking lot. (And don't mind the people around you.) At some point you will imprint on the crows and things can get quite the experience. I have a murder of crows that follow me around in the local cemetery. One day I heard one trying to imitate my 'hi'. Cleaver birds. ❤
In addition to unsalted roasted peanuts 🥜, I will also leave a crow-sized portion of scrambled eggs as a special treat. My crow neighbors are crazy for eggs. 🥚
@@rayrous8229 it's hard to explain... but there is a clear difference. im 99% sure this guy lives in Southern California based on how the crows sound. crows have different accents in different parts of the country.
In my university ornithology class we got to go to an institute where they were studying the dialects in the common house sparrow. And crow's are super smart, so I'm sure they have dialects, too!
My raven friends loved cheese, I've since moved location and made friends with Magpies...who also visit for cheese nibbles and I'm currently being quietly observed by a lone raven. Loved your video ☀️❤️
If you're getting jays, it's not likely that you'll get crows. Jays are as smart as crows, and they have a lot of the same traits, like society, trust, facial recognition, and loyalty. They're also a lot more playful. Enjoy your jays! 😘
I have a deck off a living room area that has windows. There is a tree about 35 feet away with an active crows nest. I have put peanuts on the railing in view of the crows every morning for three weeks. They can see bluejays and other birds as they stuff themselves but the crows haven't taken advantage so far.

I just started trying to attract a few crows to my deck by calling and putting out nuts. My next step is to buy a big bag of peanuts. I am currently putting out walnuts, pistachios, and sunflower seeds. Something is eating them but I do not think it is crows.
Squirrels try to get into the peanuts I leave out even if I put them in places they cant easily reach but they are very very persistent. Egg yolks may not be so alluring to them. So I will try that.
If they were fed on a balcony, would they poop on the balcony or on the side of the building? Would they poop on cars as they flew over to the food? Just trying to find a suitable location for them that won't make the neighbors unhappy.
Most of the time, corvids will pick one or two pieces and take off with them. They all cache food, just like squirrels. However, if they do leave a gift, it's washable. Highly acidic, so sooner is best (yes, it will strip paint!). Or, if it's dry when you see it, just brush it away.
Same way, to be honest. If there are crows in your neighborhood and you place food where they can see it, they won’t take long to come eat it. If you put food out regularly, they’ll begin anticipating it and waiting for you. They learn quickly.
@@lawyercrow They can tell time. They can also count...as in one, two, three...I found that out the first time I wasn't quite fast enough with that last peanut... 😊
@@hellosweetlove2098 Oh, good question! I don't know, though...I've never offered them the white part. According to my doctor, that's the part that belongs on *my* plate... 😉 Somebody else might know, though...
@@TheUtuber999 They’ll eat egg whites, but they’re much more enthusiastic about yolks. If I set out whites and yolks together, they’ll scoop up the yolks and may or may not return for the whites hours later. Yolks are high in protein and fat calories they need for flying; whites not so much.

crow only share it with crow not other animals unless they developed bond some how.

While they certainly each have their own distinct personalities, I wonder if their behavior might also be influenced more by how hungry they are.

I love how he "tests" it using his beak. "Nah, the ring is too hollow, not enough peanut content inside the shell."
I feed the local rooks, ravens and jackdaws on our garage roof they’re adorable

They are smart. One of them wants 2 peanuts at a time 😄
How does that make them smart? If it were kids we'd spank them for being greedy.
Ah, the all too familiar click, click, click of their beaks hitting the peanut shells. Love that sound.
I can tell by the way the crows sound that you're by the west coast of the US 😆

Please be careful about giving them cheese... All dairy. Lets look it up! 😺
It's a banquet that no crow or other species would refuse to attend.

Why dont they go to the " Kentucky Fried Chicken" right down the street?
What makes you think they don’t?

Squirrels are omnivorous, and they will LOVE those egg yolks.

Yeah! They recognize that as my call. It tells them their snacks are ready

Does anyone know when their nesting season is? I’d like to add some eggs or chicken to their usual walnuts to help with the little ones.
Right now! Started at the beginning of spring. A few of my crows’ babies have fledged! Yours will certainly appreciate the extra nourishment 🫶❤️
This can't be the first time! LOL. How did you get them the FIRST time?

Bread is actually not good for them.
@@rhiannonseabolt9340 why not?
@@hankking9007 Bread isn’t bad for them but what they need and prefer is high calorie protein and fat; eggs, nuts, cheese, cat and dog food.
@@lawyercrow ohhh cheese too? They like cheese. And dog food? Wow.
I wouldn’t feed dog food or cat food to my enemy. That stuff is made from putrid things!🤢🤮
Wait your turn buddy
I can't. My neighbour's complained, i will get a 400 euro bill... sac but true
What did you wipe on there?
Probably melted egg yolk goo from the bottom of the container. I’d have to watch it again to be sure.
Are they egg yellows or cheese balls? Either way, they don't last long!
Egg yolks, but yeah - they won’t turn down cheese of any shape
