Science: Crows

[Frank Booth]

A good documentary on crows.

Although cultures around the world may regard the crow as a scavenger, bad omen, or nuisance, this bad reputation might overshadow what could be regarded as the crow's most striking characteristic - its intelligence. New research indicates that crows are among the brightest animals in the world. A Murder of Crows brings you these so-called feathered apes, as you have never seen them before.

I found out that Crows were special when I was a kid. I went through a period from about 11-12 where I was shooting a lot of birds with my pellet gun. One day I saw this giant Crow and tried to shoot him (assuming it was a him). The pellet bounced off him and he looked at me like "really? you are actually going to try and kill me. I'm a Crow!!".

From that day on, I know Crows had something going on.
