I've always want to make some crow friends

Apparently the trick is when you see some drop food near them, and the more they see you do it the more they associate you with good things.

Yeah if you find some and give food, you should try to go every day at around the same time, if possible. They are good at learning routines and will remember you pretty quickly.

I made friends with some park crows like this. They are pretty comfortable with me now but still can't hand feed them or anything like that

They always fly away when I toss it 😢

Don't toss, drop. Put it on the ground and back away.

You should hang out at a crowbar.
