    The biggest proof that this woman raised him properly is that Pepe was able to effortlessly make friends, and find his tribe in order to individuate from his nest at the normal progression of development, while still maintaining his relationship with his mother. Hats off to this woman! She must be an exceptional person.

      Birds are so interesting. Sitting on a foggy beach in Washington I watched an older guy and a young woman play keep-away with a Seagull. It was just one Seagull. They threw the ball back and forth and the gull would chase it back and forth while occasionally catching it in mid-air. They would chase it around and yell at it good naturedly until it dropped the ball and the game would all start again. I was mesmerized. When they left I asked, inanely, if they weren't going to take "their" gull and they said "oh he isn't ours. She(he) shows up to play ball with us sometimes"....I'm sure I had a stupid look on my face and all I could say was "Oh".

      While it might be sad for him to spend time away from them. It's good for the crow that he's developed a conmection with other local crows early on. Crows are very social and he might have been rendered as just a house pet otherwise.

    The fact that this bird was able to not only learn how to do things any ordinary crow would learn but also join his own community of crows and occasionally visits his foster family just shows how remarkably intelligent crows are. They are geniuses and remember vividly who and what a thing is based on just about anything. Look, touch, sound, action. They are almost like children in that aspect.

    This reminds me of a story. 20 plus years ago when I was a teenager. We had an above ground pool. I went out to vacuum the pool one day and there was a crow barely alive in the water. Took my skimmer and got him out. My sister grabbed her hair dryer and a bath towel. We dried out his feathers for a good hour and let him rest. Couple hours later he flew away. For the next 6 years we lived at the house and he would visit us. Left random trinkets around our pool. 20 years ago I still think about that crow

There was a study at the University of Washington since there's a high number of crows/ravens in our state, people wore masks and made 'aggressive' like stances and tried to shoo crows away from their usual spots, they then did that for a specific amount of time and then waited for another specific amount of time before going back to the same areas, but this time without the masks and different outfits. Somehow both the same crows and different ones from before recognized the people who antagonized them without the masks on. As if the crows shared stories around a campfire and told the others as well as their own.

    I would never recommend a Crow as a pet because they deserve rehabilitation and a full life in the wild.
    However, if you ever are given the opportunity to adopt or foster a Crow or Raven into your life, it is one of the most rewarding things you'll ever experience..
    It's almost unreal how intelligent and intuitive they are.

Before any solution was found, crows figured out they could flip the toad and eat it's innards without harm. Problem solved itself.

    Crows communities actually communicate with each other about the humans who help and humans who harm. They have collective memory and pass the info to their children. Crows will actually locate lost items that their good humans lose. A woman who helped a crow, and feeds it, returned her lost cellphone case she lost in the park, as well as her daughter's earing. He left them on their birdbath a week after they lost them. Crows are super intelligent.

    Since dogs have been living with humans for a long time, they are said to be able to read our emotions. Many dog owners may have some idea of what they are feeling, such as going to the side of someone who is sad and comforting them with a lick, or wagging their tails vigorously when they are happy. Dogs have excellent senses and cognitive abilities, and can distinguish the slightest sounds of breathing, heartbeats, and tone of voice, and respond to human emotions.

    Corvids are amazing birds, they're more intelligent than parrots. Just from an intelligence standpoint, they possess self awareness, tool making, they actually play elaborate games with each other. They can recognize familiar human faces and display complex problem solving skills. Crows have a remarkable diverse diet, they'll eat most of what humans can eat, many species eat agricultural pests like cutworms, wireworms, grasshoppers and harmful weeds as well. They remember not only the days garbage trucks will be out and about and even memorize garbage truck routes to scavenge whatever they can find (planning). Fascinating animals.
