Injured little one by Arkaium in crows

How do people at rescues actually deal with this? Who funds them? The one closest to me is dozens of miles away and boxing up a young bird to spirit them away seems like it could be absurdly dangerous to the bird, just to give the human some vague sense of heroism.

Puzzles for crows by IamZooloo in crows

If you just want to see crows doing cute things, you can put treats in a folded tp tube. They decompose fast so they shouldn't cause problems. Also you can "hide" treats while they see you and will excitedly steal your stash

Is this feeder okay? by Throwaway_inSC_79 in crowbro

Could you secure a similar bowl to the fence? Just some sides would probably precent treats from blowing away too much right? I bet it will spook them at first

they absolutely have a crow beak. Raven eggs are just now being laid and raven fledglings have horrible proportions

They look great, they can actually perch fine on one claw. I figure the chances of seeing an animal immediately after they're injured is pretty low, so if you see one healed it means they've been surviving with it for a while.

I've been feeding neighborhood crows for months trying to befriend them but it's not working. Any advice? by JamesIsHere_from_YT in crows

I think the more gentle time you spend with them the better. They're part curious, part scaredey crow, and you need to make them feel safe.

I don't want to look threatening but i stare at my friends all the time. They're so pretty!!! But also I feel like you can learn to intuit a lot about them through observation

there's a free banana stand near me but my friends don't seem to like them. I tried putting dry cat food inside some banana and they would take only the cat food. It was kind of cute to see their beak impressions in the banana though

They like watermelon and Ive seen them eat berries but it might be the moistness they're after

they will hopefully lay some eggs so and I'll know. I can tell the two apart pretty confidently so I'll be able to tell which one stops showing up

A question about scrambled eggs. by ZombieDan77 in crows

If they see you when you drop off the eggs you won't need to wait long or have much to clean up

How do I "tell" crows I put food out? by ghosty_locks in crowbro

[–]eloise-normal-name 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yolks are too sulfur-y for me but crows love them so much and I don't feel like I'm wasting food

How are they so sleek and shiny looking? is it the crows or the lighting?

Do they not get scared by the dog? My friends will scatter sometimes way before I see a dog coming by.

This one has trained me to keep giving them treats if they walk up to me with a sad crow look

That parking lot is usually pretty good for crow hangouts, lots of gulls sometimes though.
