I listened to this book recently. It's good if you're interested in the brain chemistry of what makes corvids behave as they do.

I fed crows peanuts at my last place and they gifted me sunglasses. I cherish those

I got a few stones from them in the bird bath in my front yard, which was awesome—A red quartz, a white quartz, and a random piece of concrete. Today they left fries in the bird bath, so, you know, thought that counts... Or they were just softening their food up and something interrupted the meal.

So you are now a stone collector i assume?

[–] Mechanismatic@lemmy.ml 3 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah, I keep whatever non-perishable objects they bring me. So far it's just the three stones.

Don't like that title/description. Not everything has to be or be like humans.

[–] AbeilleVegane@beehaw.org 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Yep, I don't like it either. But I think editors often suggest a subtitle to a book to make it more appealing to the mass, it could be what's happened here.

Yeah, sadly likely.
