Redditor Picks Up Wrong Baby Crow And Its Parents Attack Them

by Maryjane

Both birders and nonbirders find crows fascinating. Crows and other corvids are exceptionally intelligent, possibly more so than some primates, according to studies.

This might be due to the fact that they have abnormally huge brains for their size. Crows' capacity to "bear grudges" and communicate their negative feelings towards other crows with "friends and relatives" has long been a source of fascination for people.

Study found out that ravens, which include crows, jays, and magpies, have the capacity to "hold grudges" for up to two years. The study was published in the journal Animal Behavior.

Crows prefer open terrain with a few small trees for roosting. Cities and suburbs are almost perfect as they are adept at having fun.

The OP in today's story found a crow at the park as they were taking a walk. According to the OP, the moon was still peaking through a golden sky, dying remnants of the sunset caressing the encroaching baby blue.

Then the OP sees a baby crow sitting serenely on the pavement. The OP leans down and gently strokes it, yet it merely leans its head into their hand.

Then it hops off once again, but it comes back for gentle strokes once more. But then, its parents squawked, and the OP found out the hard way that crows keep grudges.

Whether alone or in groups, crows frequently play with objects it finds on the ground. Crows are able to identify human faces and may recall whether a face represented a threat or an advantage.

Crows will even seek retribution from certain people who have wronged them in the past. Concerning potentially harmful people or animals, crows will communicate with one another.
