Crows

We have 2 crows that visit us daily and noisily demand monkey nuts. (Which we dutifully throw out of the window).

Today one of them came back with a feather that it dropped in front of our window. My wife is convinced it was a gift.

Apparently it’s a thing they do in reciprocation for being fed; the article cautions against attracting many as they are social creatures. Still it was a very nice gesture by Mr (or Mrs) Crow.

I think they mean it as an exchange for a gift. They are very smart and beautiful too.

Agreed. We also get magpies, but the 2 crows are definitely smarter.

We used to get cow pies when we visited our family farms.🤔

Did the cows have wings?
