One thing I do miss about Reddit is r/crowbro where people who feed crows post pictures of the gifts crows leave for them. It was one bright spot in the sea of shit that is Reddit. Birds are utterly fascinating.

Ok I'll figure out how.

It's actually what motivated me to start hahaha. I wanted a gift from my corvid friends, but my corvid friends run the hell away if they even catch a glimpse of me in the corner of the room through a window. I guess because it's a small balcony instead of a large, open and safe space. Even though I gave up on the idea and now feed them for no other reason than to feed them, I wish they would at least be chill with my existence. I'm fairly certain they think nuts grow out of flower pots.

But damn they look cool.

I love it!

Apparently the trick to crow gifts is to try to get them to see you dropping the food? Like even at a distance.
