I'm very nice - when they fall, I always put them back. Well, except the ones that fall in the water
I expect peanuts because you made me wait like 2 minutes.
Be reasonable. There's more than 30 of you guys

What? I've got an itch. You think I've got mites don't you!

How do I reach the nuts?
I thought crows were supposed to be smart

This is very much true but they don't tolerate uninvited guests, e.g. crows from rival murders. Luckily, where I feed the crows, it's mostly in places where they have no territory of their own and though they fight, it's not as bad as some places. π
If you ignore the crows, they just go self-service

I do like it when the crows put on a show for me

Thanks to his distinctive appearance, I've been able to recognise him easily and here he is in a park that's a couple of Kms from the lake. He seems to be everywhere at once unless he has a doppelganger

I love watching crows working on nuts. I never get bored of it. If you throw a walnut on a paved area when there's a crow around, they'll chase it π
I'll be keeping an eye out for them but I know not to get too close - just leave them be. Hopefully, they'll be able to fly and leave before a fox gets them
I hear them most days at the lake in winter but seeing one is hard. They blend in with the crows in the trees but they're often too timid to come down.
Yesterday, I noticed that the rooks in the city are back. Hard working birds that are busy nest building
I looked like this before and after the moult π«’
Crows love that sort of thing
The garden needs a tidy up. Everything is looking tired.
I'll let the gardener know. I'm just the photographer.

What a crazy background reflecting on the water. I almost forgot I was supposed to be photographing the crow

Hands over 500g bag of peanuts
That's true. I'm very busy right now having to decide between food and nesting material
What is it eating? It looks like a chestnut or sculpted boiled egg π
I've never seen a jackdaw fledging. In the early summer, I'll get a chance to see baby rooks and crazily enough, they look just like crows
Beautiful shot.
What a cutie. Love jackdaws. Unlike crows, jackdaws in Zurich are protected as their numbers are in decline
It's amazing to watch a crow carry off a walnut. Here, unlike those video clips of urban crows in Japan, the crows just drop them from a height and swoop down to enjoy a nut that's broken almost perfectly in half
Love this Heather. A real beauty, soggy or not
Those bastards have nicknamed me the burst pillow!

That's a great photo. Love it
Lovely shot Andrea
God they look bad-tempered
I'm late for work but I don't even have job!

Little guy is wondering where everyone else is. Especially when there are peanuts!
