@dilong Crowy grail is for our house to make friends with some Crows or Ravens.

Only corvids that like us thus far are Jays and Woodpeckers.

@Brett_E_Carlock

This one lives in a city park and is accustomed to people, they are much easier to befriend that way!

@dilong I love that crows do this! We've seen from experiments with people wearing masks that if you put the mask on upside down, crows will do a mid-air pirouette to check the face against one they know. I have to assume their brains aren't particularly good at abstract rotation, because that's a lot of energy to expend otherwise to make the signal match the orientation you need.
