I wonder if the crow and the squirrel were doin the “Dead Parrot” sketch.
Squirrel: He’s not dead.
Crow: He’s pining for the fjords.

Saw vultures ripping at a roadkill deer carcass yesterday.

Squirrels wave the tail to distract a predator into attacking the tail and missing the squirrel.
They do it constantly.

One of the most amazing things I ever saw was a crow playing with seagulls in a thermal over a canal.

Moments like those in your video and the
images that follow are difficult to explain to people who do not think animals are sentient beings.
