Nearly all Corbids, of which crows are a member are astonishingly intelligent.

They possess language and exhibit behaviors that make even the smartest dog look stupid in comparison.

Cheers,

What a lovely video (how research was funded? Not gonna go there!).

My favorite bird is their corvid cousin the bluejay with its many (22?) distinct warning calls. Can’t find the source, may have been Cornell ornithology, but it’s also fascinating. Thanks for posting. Cheers!

Clark's Nutcracker, another Corvid, is extremely intelligent especially when it comes to communicating.
