Another Crow Clip

This morning there were crows washing their food in the birdbath again. There were pieces of a gopher or squirrel in the water when I filmed this crow trying to get into its nut.

We planted a pecan tree for the crows. They really like pecans and work very hard to get the goods out of the shells. They enlist the help of passing cars by putting them in the road. They try to open them by dropping them from the power lines onto the pavement. And they hammer at them with their beaks while wedging them into corners like the wall of a birdbath.

While this crow was working on his nut he had a visitor.



Mind you, there is a close relative, if not a family member, of the squirrel in the water it's drinking from.

Yuck!
