there's a story of a crow stealing coins from a car wash & hiding the hundreds of dollars in tokens & coins on the roof of the car wash. a crow will watch traffic run around streets below, the crow will drop nuts on the street, car tires run over the nuts breaking them open, in sweeps the crow for a snack
I believe I've heard somewhere that crows are among the smartest animals on the planet- right up there with dolphins + mice.
I've seen crows waiting on power lines over the highway waiting for a suitable gap between the cars to swoop down + grab abandoned fries from a discarded Happy Meal.
Then again, they've never volunteered to help me out with a sudoku puzzle either!
Cheers.
'Cause you don't give blood and take it back again.
Reminds me of Aesop's fable The Crow and the Pitcher.
not too shabby, my cats can do that :^o
