  • Did you know that crows can remember your face and hold a grudge? Professor John Marzluff from College of the Environment has studied these loud, boisterous, and extremely intelligent birds for more than 20 years. In this Whole U seminar he breaks down common misconceptions about avian intelligence, and helps us explore the amazing brains of crows. You will learn about the commonalities between human brains and bird brains, crows’ ability to speak different languages, and their ability to learn from human activities and mimic them. Just be warned, by the end of Dr. Marzluff's seminar you might develop a new obsession for these incredible birds!

    This is absolutely fascinating and mind blowing. Brilliant lecture about a beautiful and extremely complex animal. There is just so much we still do not know and may never know

    I have seen them scarinng cats away. Npt for themselves, for Magpies. I've seen them attending a Magpie funeral and hugging and grieving. I've taught them nothing but they've taught me loads. Far more clever than us IMO 😂

    I have a flock of 20 to 40 crows that come for food. About once ever two or three years three flocks come in from three different dirrecrtion and all land in the fir trees and scream and talk to each other about 30 minutes and then they all fly away in three different direction. I call it the crow convention. They may come every year and I might have missed it. Never heard any other crow people mention it.

    live close to downtown Seattle and feed crows every day. they gift me items and show up the moment I leave my apt and different flocks follow me until I literally walk back in the front of the building. I've had over 100 waiting for me before. been doing this for about 3 years.

    Thank you Dr. Marzluff! The empathy and care you conveyed 44:14 - 44:55 can be applied to so many more things in our world, too, we can learn so much from our friends 🙏🏽

    Over twenty years ago, I moved into my house and found local crows attacking my persimmon tree. I asserted my ownership of the tree by throwing objects into the air, and yelling. I didn't attack the crows! Just claimed the tree! By the third year, they had ceded me the tree and its fruit. Since then, they have taught their children and descendants. The crows won't eat anything they think is mine, though it's only the persimmon tree that I claimed.

    Worth watching. A really good informative talk on crow intelligence that held my attention right the way through. I loved the story of the crow controlling the dogs. Also the ideas about gifting are very interesting. Nice one. ……Hᴜɢʜ….ツ

    That was fantastic to watch. I absolutely love crows. In Boonsboro M.D. when I’d go hunting I noticed the same 2-3 crows following me. I’d stop for a rest & they would stop. I’d go north & they would go north. I’d run south they fly south. Then you would be a gunshot in the distance & if it wasn’t too far away, they would fly towards the sound. Then I realized they’re waiting for me to make a kill so they can eat what’s left over.
    I was tell a game warden about this. He told me that if someone had escaped jail, or there was a missing child…the sheriff and towns people would follow crows knowing crows followed people & they would use this method to find people.

    When the adult Magpie died I knew they were an adult down so I yhrew the Magpies some food. The Deagulls tried to get the food and the Crows went vrazy. Suppose they considered that rude 😂😂

    I reckon if we want to look how birds live then we have to watch them and be patient. Bo need to scate them

    I have a wonderful crow story to share. My neighbor was consistently feeding a crow and the crow pretty much adopted her and would meet her every day when she came home from work and would fly above her as she walked from her car to her house, as if to protect her. Soon, this crow began begging from me also and I would feed him on occasion. One day, this crow was yelling and screaming at me to feed him, and I went outside and yelled back at him "I can't feed you every time you scream!" I then walked to my car to get something and he followed me and perched himself on the telephone line above my car. As I was walking back to my house, I felt the brush of wings on my right ear and then watched as the crow continued his flight over my house. I was completely amazed that this crow knew exactly how close he wanted to get to my ear with his wings, as to not hurt me but just to make a statement. He not only demonstrated the emotion of anger, but the message was crystal clear: "I am in control here, not you!" It was an experience that I will never forget! You may share this amazing story in your teaching if you wish.

    Please find out what they feel about LSD or shrooms. I wonder if some of them would appreciate the enlightening experience.... but dang.. how to preserve their hearts. :(

    G-D'S CREATION IS AMAZING!!!
    Elijah Fed by Ravens
    2 Then the word of the Lord came to Elijah: 3 “Leave here, turn eastward and hide in the Kerith Ravine, east of the Jordan. 4 You will drink from the brook, and I have directed the ravens to supply you with food there.”
    5 So he did what the Lord had told him. He went to the Kerith Ravine, east of the Jordan, and stayed there. 6 The ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning and bread and meat in the evening, and he drank from the brook. ( 1 Kings 17:2-16 )
