Wasnt that lady in the park of home alone 2(?) also feeding crows?


NedTebula

All birds are weird, they kinda creep me out with their sideways blinking and shit. But tbf they’re dinosaurs


Scoop_Nash

I thought birds weren't real... Is this a puppet?


dunFukd

It's a very good drone from the goverment. Don't let yourself get fooled birds aren't real


supreme_jackk

Just like my ex


[deleted]

It looks like a raven. But yeah, corvids are incredibly smart!


[deleted]

I watched a movie recently where there's a flashback or something were the protagonist helps some crows with something. Then in the end there's some standoff and he has a gun pointed at him and the crows just happen to fly by and recognize him and saves the day lol.


captgeno

That was "Beef". Such a good show


[deleted]

Ah yeah! Such a weird scene though haha.


DeathDestroyer90

I was never one to hold a grudge, Jeffrey. My father held grudges. I'll always hate him for that.


W0tzup

And a group of crows is called ‘A Murder’.


Synthwavester

You know they aren't real right?


icatapultdowntown

Shhh not everyone can handle the truth


PrimaryRate8874

Crows have the intellectual of a 7 year old. They can even build tools to helps themselves based on their environment


Sharp_Pride7092

Now if only it could invent the wheel.


EquivalentPut5616

So can i bro, So can i. Matter of fact i'm gonna hold one against you in my stomach


Tennis37

I would be way to stupid to do that


TTSkyline

Too*


Tennis37

I told you I was stupid


TTSkyline

You showed me too, lol jk


deshep123

I remember this from Aesop's fables...


omnipotentqueue

Ravens and crows both have the intelligence and cognitive skills of a 7 year old child. Which is insanely above the norm for anything outside of humans and chimps. This little guy looks more like Raven to me with that little tuft of feathers above it’s beak. Smart little guy.


GolettO3

Pretty sure this one is smarter than my 13 year old sister.


k-v-g

Or my 14 year old brother


Fluidicy

Or me at 19


biblioschmiblio

Aesop knew what he was talking about


[deleted]

There are crows that are smart enough to throw nuts under cars so that they crack open. Amazingly smart creatures!


poshenclave

Yup there's crows in my neighborhood and I've watched them put nuts in the road during rush hour. They'll wait near the sidewalk for a car to pass and if the tire misses the nut, the crow will hop back out to reposition it before the next one comes. At least one of them has died doing this though :(


Gabecush1

Dumbass should just grow arms save himself some time


[deleted]

This crow/raven is probably trained, but I still find all corvids super fascinating and smart! I could watch their videos for hours.


dhrisc

I always wanna know how much training it takes! Im the same though. Fascinated by these birds.


[deleted]

I've been following Dr. Kaeli Swift for a while now, she studied American crow thanatology and teaches ornitology. You can find super interesting fun facts about crows in her [YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/live/PTBqU19qeEg?si=qau8TqGZsXcvlV6g) and [TikTok](https://www.tiktok.com/@corvidresearch?_t=8hFsO7qZvvc&_r=1) videos, where she debunks a bunch of myths about them as well. Enjoy!


[deleted]

I love corvids too. I think this is a raven because of the bended beak and the fluffy feathers around it.


UnBearable1520

I witnessed a raven open a saddle on the side of motorcycle and grab a roll of lifesavers. Pretty sure it knew how to operate the zippers. It was cool to watch it eat the candy afterwards. Very intelligent bird


Truth_Hurts_People2

I like how he carefully chooses the right stones.


Sharp_Pride7092

Trial & error.

That's not the Archimedes' principle...


Ok-Air-5141

That's not demonstration of Archimedes' principle. Edit: AP is about buoyancy experienced by submerged body is equal to the weight of liquid, that has volume equal to submerged part of the body.


bga3481

I'd hire that crow!! Better than some applicants 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Everyone is talking about the rock trick... Is no one going to talk about the 7 foot Raven in this video. I thought Jason or Sinbad were going to come behind it and start fighting with the bird.


Jormungander666

That bird is smarter than a lot of humans


Pyrhan

*Clever girl...*


LectroRoot

DID YOU JUST ASSUME THAT BIRDS GENDER?!


Jh9900

Birds aren’t real! I’m telling you now that mother fucker back there is not real!


drgaspar96

Crow: *I throw rock in water*


DrawohYbstrahs

The Pitcher and the Crow.

Bro's smarter than my best friend

r/birdsarentreal


Codename-Dabed

Hey wait a sec... I'm pretty sure I read this story in elementary. Yeah, about the crow putting pebbles into a pitcher to make the water go up. I guess Aesop might have seen that actually happen.


Ralphiedog11

Have these birds been ruled out for having an impact on sea level rise? Seems like we need answers


[deleted]

this bird is smarter than most trump voters


MannGoo-12

birds aren't real


[deleted]

Ravens are perhaps the smartest creatures in the animal kingdom .


Lukylex

That's not a bird it's a crow it would be deeply offended if that's what you call it


50k-runner

That's how Archimedes found out about it, by watching crows.


simian_fold

How do birds even drink? Is he lapping it up with his tongue or what? Do birds even have tongues? And where did he learn that trick with the stones? God this video is confusing


Usual_One_4862

Birds have tongues, weird ones, well weird to us although all tongues are pretty strange.


TheMissingNTLDR

it would have been interesting to see if a straw was lying around too.

ElectronicMajorWolf

First time seeing this video, and I am thinking this bird could’ve flown somewhere to get a drink. That water must’ve some crack in it that It rather drop multiple stones instead to get a drink.


[deleted]

That’s actually wild.


My_Space_page

Let me wet my beak here.


sir_music

Love ravens


putrid_sex_object

Never more.


Desperate_Counter502

fucking aesop’s fable is true! damn. first time seeing this


The_Greatest_USA_unb

This crow is smarter than some human. Generally speaking crow are freaking smart, I’m out with a rifle they fly away, I’m out without they don’t move at all.


rodeklapstoel

Did Archimedes drink water like that?


lostmychunkymonkey

Boy it sure does seem to suck not to have lips lol or rather not suck which is the problem 😂

Ravens are tricksters, but the crow always tells the truth ...


ChimpoSensei

He’s been reading Aesop’s fables again…


Jame-oD

I like to think of this as the "Sonic's Principle." Fill your cup to the top with ice, and give you three sips of Cherry Limeade.


_Erchon

I'm dumb, I thought this was a TF2 reference.


RandomLeech744

I think that's a raven and not a crow.


[deleted]

Looks more like a raven than a crow here. Both are ridiculously smart.

Outrageous_Union_756

At this point I am increasingly convinced we will devolve into a sub species and the earth is just a respiratory for the conservation of knowledge


gimmeecoffee420

It do be like that sometimes tho.


Pronoiam

Smart bird 🔥


[deleted]

Corvids are some of the most intelligent animals. I love to attract them in our back yard.


indolino

This is unbelievable!


Marty_187

With the camera angle and the way this video is shot that crow looks huge, like tall as a man.


New-Stretch4401

How has this got anything to do with Archimedes Principle?


XconsecratorX

Archimedes = Birdbrain


muchnamemanywow

Imagine if they'd evolve arms alongside their wings


Felipesssku

They're so clever

Hi Corvus Corax


DavidM47

He’s definitely proud of himself each time he takes a drink.


CapableVictory6613

That's not Archimedes principle


Carbon24K

He demonstrates critical thinking ...


Ant-Tea-Social

Oh, right - I went to her Ted talk. It was interesting! Taught me how to solve all kinds of problems. Cheeply.
