The Crow I had coming to me all summer has moved on now and I hope he returns over the winter. I miss him very much .
Oh I am sorry! I hope he comes back!
@@KrariTheCrow I'm sure he/she will . But at the end of the day I gave him/she a good start to life and a little encouragement too. It also brought some joy into the face of the locals and children when they saw the birdman and his crow. But if I never see him/ her again I'll always have the memories and some truly beautiful photos of me and my crow friend. Have a wonderful day week and year and my your bird friends fill you with a joy no one else can give . And as trigger would say TTFN.
so did he
An addition to the looking at them. I noticed that my adult crows who have known me for more than a year seem to not mind me looking at them from one meter away. The exception is while they are feeding. If I look at them during their favorite activity (taking as much food in their beak as somehow possible) then they often interrupt picking up the food, look at me and wait.
The less brave, less familiar crows often fly towards my balcony and turn around in the last moment when they notice that I happen to be looking in the direction of their intended landing spot.
The young crows do not even approach food on the lawn while I am looking at them from the balcony (with no possibility to get closer to them) if that food is close to the balcony.
I guess crows feel especially vulnerable during picking up food. This does make sense as they are much less capable to watch their surroundings then.
I love Crow very much..m❤❤❤
crows are awesome :-)
for 3 or 4 years local crows passionately hate my neighbor and we don't know why . the same crow will swoop in from behind and peck his head even make a mess of his trash bags but never touch other people 's bags. i can even tell when he's outside because all the crows gather on the power line and let him know they're not happy with him it's hilarious
I'm sure you get a ton of messages, but I finally made friends with some crows at my work. Today I stuck my hand out and let them see my very glittery nails. He looked and them and made a very low "ooowaaa" sounding noise twice, grabbed some peanuts I left for him and few away. WHAT DOES OOOWWWAAAA MEAN?!?! Lol I cried I was so happy.
I'm glad to hear that!
mine does the same.. 2 times
I got food.
Calls the companion to pick up her share.
BEFORE snacking it means
I am here.
after eating it means..he is happy he got food..many videos out there with all sounds..., As research continues, the term "bird brain" no longer carries a negative connotation. Avian researcher John Marzluff showcases a few amazing, problem solving (and sometimes vindictive) feats accomplished by crows in order to break down common misconceptions about avian intelligence. , Crows, smarter than you think | John Marzluff | TEDxRainier

Oooo la la
Crows love shiny things. It sounds like your crow friend loved all the little tiny spots of shiny all over your nails =) Super cute!
I’ve always hated glittery nails but I’m going to start painting glittery nails now! I so want my crows to love me like I love them 😍 mine actually might be ravens. I haven’t for sure identified them yet but they live on my land and they’re so beautiful.
imma lock in and befriend a crow watch i’ll come back to this video soon with this new knowledge i’ve obtained
did it work ?
You're late
Crows visit me several days a week. I have yet to gain proximity interaction however there does seem to be unspoken communication.
Thank you with gratitude for this data this Day 💟
Thanks for that very nice video.
I do appreciate your first-hand knowledge contained in it.
I also like the sound of your voice.
Keep them coming!👍🙂
Thank you for this video. I am now gonna start to try befriending a crow.
These are great tips. I’m in the process of befriending a pair of crows now. I live on the edge of a small German village and a pair has nested for years in some trees near my house. One of them will fly down and land several feet away to wait for some treats. The other watches from the tree and flies down as soon as I turn my back on the food. They clearly treat other humans differently than me, so I take their trust very seriously. Nice content, thanks for posting.
Hi, so hat das bei mir auch angefangen :)
@@KrariTheCrow Es ist sehr interessant: Wenn der Habicht in der Nähe ist, können sie sich gut verstecken. Und die Elstern sind lustig, springen immer rein und werden halbherzig verjagt. Ich bin gerade dabei, einen Zeitraffer von Krähen- und Elsternakrobatik zu machen. Das alles erfreut mein Herz. :))
Das Krähen und Elstern Spiel sehe ich hier auch immer. Bin gespannt auf das Video, ist es dann online zu sehen?
Ich sollte in den nächsten Wochen genug Material und Zeit haben, um den Schnitt zu machen. Ich schaue mir alle deine Videos sehr gerne an. Ich lasse es dich wissen, sobald es hochgeladen ist :) @@KrariTheCrow
I actually got friendlier with one of the fledglings than the parents this (my first) season. Parents still flee my gaze and will mostly be at a distance in the surrounding trees while I am out. If I have forgotten to feed them (I'm quite erratic, especially now that the parents aren't direct-feeding their fledglings), one of the fledglings can come alone, land on the edge of the roof directly above my head, and do some small-talk. Naturally it pays off greatly when he or she does...
It was actually quite fun to see the fledglings this summer, carelessly walking around the feeding place, being fed and eating themselves, while the parents seemed to focus on trying to teach them to be extremely cautious when approaching the food. Totally understandable behavior, but it shows the fledglings seem to trust my place and my food more than the parents would like. Too bad the fledglings will probably have to find their own territory in another year or so.
Yes unfortunately the fledglings will have to leave in spring. It is always so much fun to have them around!
🙂
I've been palling with the local magpies for years now.
_thanks for this!_
Thank you for explaining this. Ive been making friend with Edgar, Allan and Poe for a couple years now. This video explained many of the behaviours I've seen on my 3 feathery friends...
I call all my crows Dandolo. I’ve had a lot of crows some as pets for rehabilitation and all the wild ones now I called them down. I only had one crow they could say his name so clearly but deep voice I’ll never forget that.
👍💪✌️
Thank you!
I had a magpir friend for a few months last year. I found him/her in the grass, as a chick, when mowing the lawn and couldn't find the nest, so I built a makeshift nest on my veranda (porch) and fed it every time I heard it screaming. If it wasn't in the nest screaming at the top of its tiny lungs for food, it was hopping around the porch and in the garden eating bugs or playing with the dogs. Eventually, it figured out how to fly and would follow me and my dogs around when we went on walks, gliding at knee height, I guess it felt like one of the dogs. I knew it was going to leave soon when it was capable of flying 19kms into town and locating my car at work. Sometimes, I wouldn't see it for days, and it would reapear at home looking for food or playing with the dogs, with a flock of magpies in tow. It eventually stopped visiting, but l left the nest outside in case he/she needed it again.
So amazing! That is a wonderful story, thank you for sharing!!
This is a really good guide. I want to befriend a crow because I have noticed a crow who seems to follow me around my neighborhood when I drive around and stay near my house. He must live somewhere very near me. I have also seen him and another crow perched on the tree outside my house. They seem to be interested in me and like observing me. I am a very spiritual person and I believe the crows intuitively pick up on that. Like, they can feel that my soul is gentle and want to be near me because of that. This video has given me a lot of hope that I'll be able to befriend these crows who seem to already want to be friends. Thank You!
Thank you so much for disse fantastiske video 🤗🥰
You produce all of your videos in the most beautifully artful way.
Thank you
Thank you! After losing a couple of our dear chickens to hawk predation and learning that crows help keep hawks at bay, we started trying to charm crows into our garden. One day, the hawk was circling above the coop and the crows flew in and started circling there too! The hawks took off! We hear the hawks less and less each day.
The crows are not only livestock guardians...they are friends. It will be a dream for them to come close.
Great job.
4-30-24 It is 8:00 AM this morning I decided to get closer this year to a crow I named last year called duck. He has a notable clack that sounds like a duck this is how we call to each other. Duck, duck, crow is a north eastern American fish crow that lives around water and he knows his name and me. Your video was extremely important and inspiring. I will see if I can feed him this year and his mate who has a softer clacking.
Thank you for good advice! I am in the early process of befriending a rural crow in a farming landscape in Norway. I scared "him" the first time we had any contact, but not too much it seems. Today I saw him landing in my yard for the first time, checking the area. I think he already keeps track of my car to see if I´m home or not 🙂
I haven’t been at my house since November 2022. It’s May 2024 I went into my backyard this morning and the crows arrived on the wires overhead as they always did when I would feed them breakfast. I was overwhelmed and amazed
That is amazing, they never forget and are friends for life!
Здравствуйте. Вы замечательный блогер. Очень ценные съемки ворон вблизи. Я благодарю вас за советы.
Я кормлю ворон рядом с работой. Меня всегда ждет одна ворона. Она громко зовет своих друзей, когда видит меня. Я сыплю арахис на землю и ухожу в сторону. Начинается шоу. На выходных я не хожу на работу и не кормлю их. Я волнуюсь в это время.
Вороны удивительные создания. Их полет похож на военный самолёт. Виртуозные виражи. Часто они летают просто для радости. Гоняются друг за другом. Играют. Невероятные.❤
Большое спасибо! Да, вороны действительно удивительные птицы, я тоже люблю наблюдать за их полетом. Они могут быть очень быстрыми и сильными, когда хотят прогнать другую ворону.
Lovely video ❤ The natural world is far more interesting than our world !
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
li like your style 🥰been feeding n rescuing the odd injured crow for the past ten years in my local park they a big part of my life my happiness thank you very much x
so valuable advice thank you
I agree with your advice. I have followed the same guidelines and have been able to get smaller birds to eat from my hands.
Thank you for this information :) I will use it to correct mistakes I've made in my atempt to friend them . I have made mistakes in my aproach to them but I did get the food part right if not how to present the food . I will work on that :)
1. Can I feed well boiled tender pig meat?
this in breeding time, as many proteins and no additives.
and
2. how about dried dog food,
that is always!, all brands are with A, E and D added..
I do not want to overdose with Vit. A, that accumulates in the liver..
How many gramms a day of such dried dog food snack,
Vit. and preservatives added!, needs a grown male crow a day to be fully fed, full? as, an US site claimed...that a 740 g male crow needs like up to 360 g a day of food.. that seems too much..what do you think?
thanks for all advice in advance.
Your videos are excellent, learned a lot by watching and your voice is soothing, no wonder the birds linger on.
Pig meat and dog food is fine. I do not know about the grams per day, I would just recommend to remember, you are not responsible for the full diet of the birds. You are just supporting them. A handful of food a day is enough.
I feed a local crow with much of what you've recommended. Thank you. I've also occasionally included raspberries in the summer and other berries. I like to feed all birds but I've noticed that all this feeding has also attracted rats. Problem.
Thanks for posting 👍💙
I had a small murder of four crows that would come to my front yard. But I think my dog barking at another dog scared them away...I hope they come back
thank you krari for posting this i am trying to get crowes from north west florida to visit my back yard there alot blue jays an squirls i have been feeding still waiting to see a crow i hear an see them yet non yet visit the back yard .
Try mirrored sunglasses, they're pretty vain sometimes eh?
There's a crow that will now land on my 3rd floor window sill for a chat and a snack.
I'll try to get him to eat out of me hand by ignoring him
Thank you for sharing your insight and knowledge about befriending crows. Do you have any advice on how to get crows to move into your area? My husband works on a farm that is about 10 miles from where we live. We also live on a farm, but we don't "farm" so to speak. He says there are crows where he works, but only 10 miles away where we live I have never seen a crow. I would love to get them to come and start living around where we live.
Can I also ask, how long did it take to befriend these crows? Your video shows you feeding them in the winter and the summer. Does this take months? years? I would just like to know a rough timeframe we would be looking at before the crows would be comfortable around us and take food from our hands.
Can the same be done with magpies?
I am sure it can.
Its not easy....they are very cautious about coming near me....its worst when they give a call to others.. it seems that they r not to keen to befriend me... eventhough i give them food...nice recommendations though
Will a crow eat my other birds?
ExtendeD* :)
Thanks ;-) I changed it
@@KrariTheCrow My pleasure. I know how much Germans love to be corrected hehe.
When i tried this it did not work so could u try and tell me what i did wrong
I walked up to the crow threw some kibble but it flew away and I didn't look at it
It is normal for them to be scared. Especially when a strange person walks up and throws stuff in their direction 😄.
Just keep showing up at the same time each day and put down food. They will understand. You need patience!
Thank you so much I just made a crow friend 10 days ago and named him dave
I also want ask U something else can I make the crow come into my garden because it comes up to my field where I play football ⚽ and sometimes I scare him so how can I bring him to my garden
If you offer the food in your garden, it should work.
my only advice is "Don't Fucking befriend the crows!!!" Leave them be and let them be wild!!!
Try hiding food for the Crows they are raiders
Nothing escapes a crow ;-)
I put food out for the crows in my front yard and backyard and they aren’t eating it. Is it because they don’t trust me? I put out eggs and raw unsalted nuts
