Let me tell you a story about Crows...

I enjoyed watching the neighborhood Blue Jays for a while. One day, I heard nonstop cawing and Blue Jay calls - the Crows were attacking the Blue Jays.

By instinct I started clapping loudly to scare away the Crows, which I did.

But after that, they came back and started swooping down at me and showing up with their Murder members in greater numbers.

The swooping was too much, so I researched how to get them to stop. Apparently they love unshelled, raw (pause) peanuts (pause2).

Well as is turns out, they love those peanuts so much that now they leave me presents and greet me when I'm outside - no more swooping.

Them some scary, highly intelligent birds that pass down grudges for generations. Listen to Aspy.

If they're visiting you, you have been chosen - embrace it.

Might wanna consider moving baw.


"crows are known to hold grudges, remembering and reacting negatively to individuals who have posed a threat or caused them distress. Research suggests they can hold these grudges for up to 17 years, with some studies even indicating they can pass this knowledge of "bad" humans onto other crows."

Scarecrow. Farmers have been using them for centuries.

These work much better than the static ones.

I want crow friends. They are so smart.

I really do believe that I’m the TD member who should be voted most likely to be burned at the stake.

Befriend them. If you start shooting they can recognize faces and remember and they pass that shite down. You’ll have crow enemies for life.

I thought it was the ravens that get to know you and befriend humans?

Either way checks out a chicken is trying to kill them

Having Crow friends is one of the great joys of my life, and I hope Mr. Rooster Man takes this opportunity to feed and befriend them so he can experience the beauty and wonder of Nature more closely.

I put out stale bread for them. They'll holler if I forget.

When I'm out in the yard they talk to me from the trees and I respond.

"Ok, ok, I'll get you something to eat." or..

"There's already bread in the yard, what are you hollering about."

My grandkids enjoy the entertainment.

Middle kid bought a crow whistle and started walking the cane fields with bread in an attempt to start a crow army several years ago.

Not even a little
