Crows....

...are by far my favourite bird. Mainly because they are the closest thing to a dog in the aviary world. They doddle around like dogs, they’re smart like dogs, and given time, they learn to recognize faces. So boo to your budgie; I’m sticking with the ubiquitous crow.

crows and ravens are most impressive creatures. intelligent, empathetic, serene. they're an assuring presence. if i want cute, i prefer pigeons and their disarming coos. i appreciate the common birds.
except for seagulls. they have stolen a croissant, ruined my poutine, and wrecked many coats. fuck seagulls.

I think I might actually buy a selfie stick now! Wave it around... that’ll scare ‘em. Fifth most intelligent animal? Yet a scare crow keeps them at bay? Can’t be that “smart”. Rating species intelligence is like rating the top ten rappers. Biggie. No PAC. No! Ja Rule.

should do a little google search before spouting drivel and proving the crow has more intelligence than you.

Who is always perched on the sad “scare” crow?

That movie The Crow from 1994 was amazing! Really liked the movie and soundtrack.
