Drowning Crow Rescue - Crow? Raven? Rook? We save their life!

- Crow Story - I looked outside to see a bird splashing in the water, which is normal, but this wasn't a water bird, it was a crow or a raven! Crows don't swim! I called my neighbor to rush over and we had a canoe in the water in about a minute. This poor rook had been trying really hard to take off and was just exhausted by the time we got there. We got it to shore and tried to dry him off and stop the shivering. We had it bundled in a towel and dried it off off camera, but ultimately thought the sun would be warmer on the black wooden table. We offered fresh water and a snack just in case it had any appetite. He soon perked up even more while slowly regaining strength. After about an hour and half, it gave a final shake and flew off the table. I know corvids are very smart birds. I hope this one comes back to visit some time.
While we have many crows in the area, I have not had anyone come to visit in any obvious way since then, but I am always hopeful.

Crows are extremely intelligent and can remember friendly and unfriendly faces. It will probably always recognize you, they even teach their young who their friends are 🙂
Indeed, years ago a young crow leaning to fly flew into my dad's window and got stunned. He carried the bird to a safer spot and now he's got a group of friendly crows. God help you if you're foolish enough to wear a cave man mask.near the local university though, they attack on sight due to research that was done on facial recognition in crows.
@@SmallSpoonBrigadeYou must be speaking of the University of Washington.
@@SmallSpoonBrigade 🤣
The fact that crows legit are the smartest birds
How do you know? Are you a crow?
He was so exhausted, you got it just in time. Thank you for being kind.
With the exhaustion, cold water , etc. I do wonder if it had a neurological impairment going on and that's why it took a while to recover. Kind of like brain fog. So glad it was saved.
Great ending! So kind, you took the time.
I was worried he would go and plop right back in the water. 👍🏼 So glad he was able to fly away. ❤️
Exhausted and cold
@@KindCountsDeb3773 it's got water in its ears affecting balance
The poor creature was exhausted! What a sweet man. Thanks for your kindness.
That looks like a young bird.
Not only exhausted. He was freezing cold. His normal bodytemperature is somewhere close to 41 deg celcius. The water is probably close to 20 deg Celcius, and a long stay in the water will drain the heat from his tiny body very quickly.
@@las4037a just born nestling
I love crows! I pulled one out of our pool when I was kid. My sister and I dried him out with her hairdryer. He flew away afterwards. The rest of the summer we found little trinkets on our deck. Little pebbles and coins on our deck. We always wondered where they came from lol
I love this story!
It was a little surreal. But my sister and I did a good deed and saved the bird. Never thought he would return the favor by bringing gifts back to the exact same spot I pulled him out of the pool. I always wondered what happened to the crow? Hopefully had a long healthy life
Too sweet❤❤❤❤
Fantasztikus! Annyi megjegyzéssel, hogy holló és nem varjú
"You ever intend to go swim again?"
Quoth the raven: "Nevermore!"
@Echo Kilo Hotel No. You are right and nothing else.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Edgar Allan Poe, "The Raven"
Or even swim above the ocean..too dangerous..
Raven or crow I thought this was a hilarious comment...I'll assume you typed it before confirmation 👍
This act of kindness completely offsets the fact that he was wearing socks and sandals in a kayak.
Some people have ugly feet so they wear socks with sandals. Trust me your better off not seeing them.
LoL
😂 Well I'm sure the guy wasn't thinking 'bout how he'd looked whilst rescuing this bird. He'd only time to grab his jacket 'n jump in the boat wearing socks he was likely walking 'round his house in.
I’m sitting here watching this video wearing socks and sandals. I fail to see the problem.
😆
I'm betting this little guy will be back to see you one day, crows are incredibly intelligent, good save bud.
I hope he makes a video when he does come back.
I was wondering I bet it comes by and whecks on him everyday. I heard you can leave food out for them and they start bringing you shiny things.
Job well done! I think the bird understood that you were there to help him and not to hurt him. I love stories like this!
corvids are very very intelligent. he knew exactly what was going on, and i have no doubt he appreciated it very much
There's a saying by Malcolm S. Forbes - “You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him.”. That crow could offer you nothing in return but you rescued it anyway. Thank you.
So true, I just hope he didn't throw it out there so that he could 'rescue' it for a video.
It might drop by and visit him. Dropping some items on the ground near the rescuer.
Actually, they are greatful usually and always try to repay by bringing trinkets and shiny objects. Hope you get some gold
@@witchhazel4135 that's a horrible thought. No, I did not throw a crow in the water to save it for views.
I like this quote. Thanks for sharing it!
Nothing speaks more of a decent man, than saving, caring and loving animals.
All the well known dictators have historically loved animals. This is such a pointless statement on your end 😂.
@@user-wb1kd9kq5p you need to improve your reading comprehension. In your attempt to counter and even, as it seems, to humiliate the op, you proved your poor education and character all in one. I would suggest reading op statement a few more times to understand, that is, if you can.
@@user-wb1kd9kq5p If you are going to try to humiliate a kind person then at least make sense
@@user-wb1kd9kq5p Stupidity at it's finest, huh? Seriously. Leave, now.
My son is the softest person I know. He would stop to save a worm that is isolated on a driveway, and he tenderly takes spiders outside. However, he is also the hardest man I know. He loves a brutal fist fight with another willing fighter. Men are weird.
You looked into the eyes of one of the most intelligent creatures on this planet. He looked into your eyes and saw a kindred spirit. Beautiful act of love. Thank you.
Sitting on your table, looking around I don’t think he can quite believe he’s been given a second chance. ❤️🙏
That’s what I was thinking!
I love crows. They always look like they're dressed formally like going to a dance. Beautiful birds.
Beat up pigeons, tear them apart, eat them for dinner.
@@MrSpamaccount nah man I feed birds here everyday and the crows are scared of the pigeons
@@neonlights7607 they just do not need their food most likely. Nobody is scared of pigeons.
Literally saw two crows beating up (one holding pigeon with claw) a pigeon, while pigeon crowd was watching from the other side of the road. Looked like ordinary day next to Harlem.
Well, eating pigeons is nothing unique, so nothing to add here.
@@MrSpamaccount nah they come to me at noon everyday knowing that I'll put food out for them but the pigeons come and try to eat everything not letting others eat and the crows just wait there patiently to make me scare the pigeons away ... They're prolly trying to avoid unnecessary injuries from fighting since they know I will scare pigeons away at some point
@@neonlights7607 You just did not see them away from pigeon feeding points, i believe.
Anyway, crows and sparrows rule. Pigeons suck.
That’s a carrion crow. They are very intelligent and are generally solitary unlike rooks, and are bigger than magpies and jackdaws but smaller than ravens
The accent's American, I'm guessing the bird is too which means it's probably an American crow. No rooks or jackdaws in America either. There's a fish crow but they're less common and stick to the SE. of the USA.
I knew it was different because of the curved beak
@@krismichael1633 American crows and carrion crows are still very closely related
they are normally in pairs
I was wondering if it was a Raven, but it lacked the neck feathers.
Many years ago, my cousin rescued a crow. He came back to visit many times. I am so grateful to you for saving this beautiful bird ❤
Thank you for saving this crow. You were patient with it, giving it time to recover and allow time for his wings to dry. I bet he will be back to visit you and bring his family and friends as gratitude. 😃❤️
This bird is so lucky as it was so close to drowning, and this wonderful man was so careful and gentle from the moment of lifting the exhausted bird from the water to watching over him as his feathers dried. A beautiful feel good video.😊❤
@loisdargan1459 Yes. Glad he was able to be helped and fly away to be free to find his next adventure.
I'm sure that crow was very grateful!
They're smart too, and they remember faces. So don't be surprised if one day that crow comes back to see you again. ❤
Why did you not heat him up with a towel or a heating pad, I know you were trying to warm him up with your hands but...
@@patriciarussell1177 If you do not know anything about towel restraint you shouldn't do it. The bird will find a spot to sunbathe to dry out the feathers away from humans.
@@patriciarussell1177 He rescued and saved the crow, so what's the problem ?
Had two crows stuck in a football net this morning. Smart little buggers. (Apart from getting tangled😂.)
They understand at some point that you are no enemy.
Conversely, they also function in the opposite, to where if a particular person is a threat or menace to them, they not only learn, but also pass the knowledge along to their offspring.
Similar story. I found a crow which had got one leg tangled in some garden string and was, effectively, tethered to the spot. It lay quite still while I untied the knots, and seemed to know I had kind intentions.
Crows are extremely smart. After watching some videos of them, they’re one of my favorite birds
@@sirsillythebulbasuar5949 Disapointing that you appear to revel in your friend's action.
Us humans should have an obligation to help any Animal we can !! Thank you for helping this Animal !!!
Like start by stop eating meat...!
@@honumoorea873 Mother nature: no, that is not the way.
@@honumoorea873 not many people eat crows, sorry to tell you.
@@honumoorea873 Children need meat to have proper brain development. Without meat, they'll grow-up to become brain-dead liberals. But your heart is in the right place. Meat like veal(baby cows) should be illegal. Eating baby cows is just evil.
Animals in need yes, at least those that suffer from human made problems and not being in the food chain thing like one animal hunting/eating the other to survive. Nature can take care of itself as 'helping' can also mean interfering or allowing some species to thrive while others suffer with often unpredictable and unwanted consequences like plagues and extinctions.
Thank you for rescuing the crow. They are beautiful birds. 😊👍😊
My favorite everyday bird is the crow. I felt great joy hearing their call when I walked the North Carolina mountains as a child. 17 June 2023😊
Thank you so much for your kindness and compassion in saving this poor sweet crow. Crows never forget who their friends are....
I hope it is living a happy healthy life!
Its a crow , they don't make friends with humans.
@@Kirkee7 really? Then why do I have them leaving me gifts and following me when I go for walks? They most definitely make friends with humans who are kind to them. And they remember those who are not kind also.
@ so true, William....agree 100%!!
How do you know that this crow was sweet? It could have been an asshole.
Man, y'all got there in the nick of time. He wasn't gonna hold on much longer
Poor bird was clearly very cold and exhausted - thank you for saving it!
Your act of rescuing the young crow from the water was truly commendable and heartwarming to witness, and it's truly remarkable to see the crow make a full and complete recovery.
❤🐦⬛🙏😇🙏
Not only did he rescue the crow, he spoke to him as sweetly as he would a friend.. What an utterly beautiful human being, bless you! And thank you! 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
Dude sounded like the hipster mr. Rogers...awesome stuff!
Not only this bird will never forget you, I understand they are capable of passing this type of information to their offspring! Last I heard crows and ravens have the equivalent intelligence of a 3 to 5 yo human child.
Wow, that's interesting and amazing.
Yes, they even understand things like water displacement. Smarter than some people I know.
Yes and they remember faces and recognize them too.
I wouldn't limite their intelligence, their smarter than a lot of people...hahaha!!😆
@@exposingthedarknesswiththe9190 Thats a fact. Some people have 70 to 80 in IQ.
Exhausted and hypothermic - amazing that it survived - good man for giving it it’s life back.
You’re very kind man! Thanks a lot for rescuing this raven!😊 My love from Bashkortostan( Russia!🇷🇺)😘
Send my regards to all residents of Ufa.
Lol you're sending out love for a bird while you invade your neighbor and tens of thousands of innocent people are getting murdered.
Such a beautiful comment. What would we do without your "love"
@DrummerJacob why does everyone always assume someone is bad just because they come from a certain place? Where you LIVE doesn’t affect the person you are, there are good people AND bad people in Russia. Not all bad and not all good, just like America and every single country on Earth. Man human nature is hard to understand sometimes…
@DrummerJacob the people of Russia didn’t decide to attack Ukraine, their leadership did.
And yet there is plenty of support for the "special operation" and Putin in Russia.
Thank you all for your kind words of gratitude. I cannot believe all the views we received. I just hope that if any of you were in the same situation, you would do your best to help out where you can. FYI, we dried the bird with a towel just after getting out of the boat. Thanks again and cheers!
.
I have and will again I’m sure
Yessir ALL LIVES MATTER..
Long and happy life to you ! You deserve it ! Times are tough tight now but I wish that everything works out for the best for you.
What happened to it? 💯
I don't care what people say, there are still kind people in this horrible world. Blessing to all.
Most people are kind. Some people yell louder and make it seem like there are more of them then us. When disaster strikes you see humans doing amazing things...most of us.
Ther are way more kind people in the world the terrible dont worry you just think there are more terrible people bc you always hear it en kind stuff you dont hear as much
Bless you too
There are, honey. Theres just not enough of them.
Take laws and police away and see how kind everyone is. Foolish, foolish thinking.
You are such a wonderful human! Thank goodness you noticed this little guy and were able to save it. Crows are so smart and recognize both good and bad behavior from humans. I have two crows that have visited for years. They show up as a team every morning and throughout the day. They let me know they're waiting for food by making their crow calls. I wouldn't be surprised if this little guy returns to pay you some visits. Thank you for sharing this beautiful story. The world needs more people like you.
I had a crow that liked me when I was in elementary school in 5th grade. I would always give him food and he always brought me gifts. Crows are not dumb they are quite intelligent animals. I'm happy to se you saved this one. He may come back to thank you.
He's young too, bet you he'll tell his friends about the friendly giant. Lol
Crows actually teach their young about their parents’ and own experiences, this man will be going down in crow history for years to come.
Odin will bless this man for saving one of his creatures
@@MybeautifulandamazingPrincess woah, yeah. Umm, *truer words have never been spoken*
Fitting name lol
I saved the dove like that on Christmas about eight years ago she ate out of my hand just literally 30 minutes within catching her. I named her Ginger I really loved that bird. It's a great honor to win the respect and Trust of a wild creature❤
I love crows, you take care of them ,they take of you. I recently moved and the new place ,neighborhood came with a group of crows. They keep the hawks out . They are fed and watered. For me they leave me little gifts of gratitude 💕. And the pleasure of having them near . So sweet! Thank you for saving animals . ❤️ I rescue , transport and network all animals. ❣️🐾🐦
The way he talked to the crow was so sweet. He has such a kind voice
This is a beautiful story! So glad you found this crow and got to save him! I am sure he or she will be back to visit you! They are so intelligent and can be very grateful!
Thanks for coming to visit! I loved your crow videos! I added you to my crows playlist.
Watched again your crow rescue video! I think it was a young crow who attempted to fly over that water but was not strong enough yet to make it! So glad you found him in time! Did you ever see him again?
Actually it’s a girl.
@@mtblux6243 how can you tell the difference?
Deez
Wonderful save… the bird greatly comforted by your gentle demeanor.🙏🏻💜💜💜
Haha, wow! That crow just needed to get its body temperature up. I could see it was shivering most of the time it was on the table! I'm glad you managed to find this crow so that it could find its home again instead of a watery grave.
JeremyThePlayer88 it was shivering so much, that’s why I was cradling it’s body. The tabletop was nice and warm too.
Yeah, I thought the crow showed signs of hypothermia. It warmed up and then flew off.
Excellent words
I have experience with helping crows. I bet every time you now see a crow you have a smile on your face, as you remember your crow? That was that young crows gift to you for saving him, this gift will last a lifetime, I know. :-)
With all the crows around here, I always wonder if "my" crow will come back to visit... There is a huge congregation that meets up every evening around sunset near me - we always see them fly over heading to the oracle....
@@robdude1969 I bet one of those crows is your crow and he/she will remember the experience. However it does not matter which it is they are all your crows. :-)
How do you know? It'd be nice if that were so, we can hope
@@stevejbyers2071 something to Crow about?
@@tennisbum3686 They remember faces. They remember if you were good to them or bad and even pass it on to other crows. They remember faces at least up to five years. Incredible smart birds.

Thank you, made my day.
I heard a different version, instead of crow it is lamb.
Never heard that but okay!😃
His muscles are super tired from almost drowning. You did good.
I'm watching this three years after the fact but it's true that the crow will never forget your act of kindness. It will appear and sit and stare at you totally unafraid because it's memory is clear.
That lack of oxygen to the brain has him thinking he's a squirrel.
That crow, for as long as it lives, will remember your kindness.
The kindness that you showed to that crow in saving it from drowning.Shows the caring compassionate soul that you are.The world is a far better place with you in it.😇👼🙏🕊️
This raven will remember that saved its life. They remember everything.

That’s a crow. There’s actually a difference, especially in the feathers. Ravens shine blue. That crow is shining white. Not to mention the tail feathers. Not meaning anything just thought to spread a little discovery a learned

Какая прелестная уставшая ворона. Спасибо, что спасли эту умную птицу.❤
Hi, I live in England and as a kid growing up ( I'm 73 now ) the old farm workers used to tell us " if you see a rook by himself that's a crow and when you see a bunch of crows together they're rooks." God bless you sir for being so gentle and humane with this gentle creature. You, sir, are a gentleman.
And they all hang out in a rookery.
And group of crows is called a ‘murder’.
Crows are extremely intelligent birds & won't forget you, you'll definitely see it again. I rescued one many years ago, I still see him a couple of times a month. He brings gifts, it might be a bottle top, or a piece of string, he actually bought a piece of broken roof tile once, its not a thank you, crows often try to exchange, so he's just trying to get food🤣
This is what being a good steward of the earth is all about thank you sir
Poor thing was exhausted but quickly figured out you weren't going to hurt it ❤
Wonderful video thanks for sharing. Great rescue! 🕊️
I am an Eastern American Cherokee and my animal totem is the crow. They bring messages from the other side!

He's like a downed aircraft....a living aircraft. Such a wonderful bird.
I would guess you my receive "gifts" later from the grateful crow and/or family, friends. Looked like a fledgling. Super intelligent birds with strong social bonds.
Yeah, that's what I was thinking too.
It's nice to know there are other kind-hearted people in the world who will take the time to rescue animals in distress.
I’m sat with my crow now, he sees me several times a day. They are beautiful, intelligent and protective. I have a lot of love for corvids. I loved this rescue, thank you for capturing it so we can see there is still kindness and humanity in this world.
Thanks for sharing!!
What a kind and gentle soul this man is.
Yes, crows are very smart. I once dated the local “crazy crow lady”. The crows liked her and followed her around town. It was strange, almost magical. But they protected her once when someone got mad and yelled at her.
You may very well see this fella again
That is great to hear ^^
I had that experience before too.
Stories like this one bring back my faith in the humanity. That crow was so lucky that good people were around!
Thank you for saving this lovely crow ❤!!! You've most likely just made a friend who may possibly return to visit. They're super intelligent and remember who is kind and who is not. It's nice to know caring people are still out there. God speed little buddy! Stay out of the water please 🙏
Thank you so much for saving this beautiful bird ❤
Very cool! I actually rescued a baby jackdaw months ago (smallest crow) from our local airport. No mother in sight for hours and he was likely to get killed by a plane or car. Raised him for 2 months. Hand fed every 25 mins. He now lives out in the wild in our area but comes home every single day for food, water and to chill on my shoulder for a while! It's a very amazing thing having an uncommon moment with a wild animal. Crows are also one of the few birds that remember faces and as I'm convinced, also when people are kind to them this not making them on guard around those who do be patient or kind. Treat any chance to help an animal like them or even see it unafraid of you for a moment as lucky! 👍🏻
Awesome story.
Australian magpies too
Jackdaws are not crows. They are a separate genus Coloeus. And the crow in the video is a carrion crow (Corvus corone) not a rook (Corvus frugilegus). Rooks can be easily distinguished from other crows by their white bill. Also, Australian magpies (Gymnorhina tibicen), are actually butcherbirds, not corvids. I prefer to call them ground butcherbirds. The practice of calling ground butcherbirds magpies makes me cringe, because in the true sense of the word, a magpie is a long-tailed corvid and not necessarily black and white. Not every black and white songbird that has a corvid-like shape is a magpie. The pied crow (Corvus albus) is a black and white raven, and it looks more like the ground butcherbird and common magpie (Pica pica) than they look like each other.
Ground butcherbirds are known to attack people by swooping. I hope that no one worries about corvid magpies swooping just because of a butcherbird with an incorrect name. Grey butcherbirds (Cracticus torquatus) also swoop. And it is clear from the way they look that Gymnorhina tibicen is closer to the grey butcherbird (or any other butcherbird, not including shrikes, I mean the Australasian butcherbirds) than to any actual magpie.
I am Australian, and as such, I was raised to believe that magpie = Gymnorhina tibicen. When I saw depictions of real magpies, I thought that was a mistake and that they were showing another bird. The white belly of the magpie in Shawn the Sheep confused me, as did the long tail and partially blue, green and purple plumage of a magpie in a book. When I found out the truth, it was through the internet. I thought it was silly that they named the Australian magpie that. Why did they have to name it after a completely unrelated bird that wasn''t even similar? It really seems Eurocentric.
@@magentamonster western Jackdaws are part of the Corvus family, Corvus Monedula I’m sure.
@@AB-qn9cs Jackdaws are sometimes treated as a subgenus of Corvus. And if they are, then the western jackdaw is Corvus monedula. If jackdaws are not part of Corvus, than the western jackdaw is Coloeus monedula. Even if jackdaws belong to Corvus, I don't think they are crows, because they would be the sister clade to the rest of Corvus, so only the member of Corvus that aren't jackdaws are crows.
Also, of course crows and jackdaws belong to the family Corvidae, not matter which genus you put them in. Jays, treepies, piac piacs, nutcrackers, and choughs (excluding white-winged choughs; actually Corcoracidae) and magpies (excluding Australian magpies; actually Artamidae), all belong to Corvidae.
Please note, however that taxonomic ranks are arbritary, with the possible exception of species for sexually reproducing organisms. This means that not every class can be compared to other classes, not every family can be compared to other families, etc. The class Aves can not be compared to the class Reptilia which contains it, it is actually more accurate to compare it to a reptilian family, such as Alligatoridae. How is my judgement any less arbritary than taxonomic ranks? Well, I base it on the time each clade evolved. Reptiles obviously predate birds by a significant amount. In fact, they are 13/3, or around 4.33 times the age of birds. How can you call them both classes when one of them is more than 4 times the age of the other? Is an ancestor 4 times your age a member of your generation? I very much doubt that birds would have been given their own class if it weren't for creationism.
Early taxonomists like Linnaeus were creationists, they didn't think clades above the rank of genus (note that their genuses tend to be around family rank today) evolved. The original purpose of the genus rank was to separate groups that evolved from a common ancestor, that was created rather than evolving. So they thought that the very first member of each genus gave rise to the rest of the genus, but it never evolved from any other organism. No wonder, then, that scientific names of species depend on genera. That if an organism's genus is controversial, it makes it's scientific name controversial. Even though genera really don't mean anything.
You made a friend for life!👍
I hope so!
One can only hope
Crows can live ten or more years I think. Some longer.
Thank you for your humanity, and love shown to this beautiful bird, Love and Light xx
Good for you my friend. You went the extra mile.

Thank you for saving this crow's life; thank you for being so kind. May the Lord bless you!
Crows remember, especially an act of kindness. I love crows and ravens. They’re so smart. You’re his Angel.☺️
Crow are smart birds, they can tell their savior and remember who they are. So they can keep coming just to say halo to their friends
Well done!! Beautiful bird❤
Gut gemacht. ❤❤
My crows really like scrambled eggs with salmon. That would have perked him up very quickly. Great rescue. My rescue told his offspring and when they have babies they come for quick meals of bread.
My crows love chili...they tear it up!
My Grandmother gave them spaghetti once and it puzzled the hell out of them.
They must have thought they found some huge worms.
She puts food out for the wild kangaroos and birds... she makes special trips to town to get feed just for them ❤️
birds cant have bread without it messing up their wings.
Do you let crows in home or just outside your apartment they come to visit?
The ravens and jackdaws I feed love cheese. The jackdaws walk along my window ledge to let me know they're there. The ravens wait on the tree outside my house and follow me to the supermarket and back. Corvids are so clever. One of the jackdaws brought their young to my window earlier this year. Either proudly showing me the baby or showing the baby I was a source of food. Perhaps both. Interesting birds to watch.
I love the fact that you saved him. Thankyou for not just leaving him there.

That bird needed a heat lamp. So glad your a kind man with a good heart.
Yes or a silk blanket
The crow was struggling hard for quite a while after the rescue. Likely under cooled and too much water intake.
Good job saving this bird.
Tucked around here and there are those who care. Thank you for going out of your way to save this bird. May the powers that be, reward you! ♥
It’s one of your deceased relatives. You two communicate telepathically.
True ❤
Nice job guy. You will never forget it if you live to a 100. You may forget everything else but saving the crow will always cheer you up .
:-)
As a bird lover, I can say we all love what you've done for that birb. ❤️
Me too

A treasure to watch this rescue! Crows are very smart and social! Your kindness will be remembered by the crow and those of us that watched this video! Well done!!
