After the building blew up, the crow could be heard going around saying, "Three, two, one, boom". I read on story about a crow that witnessed a building being demolished by explosions.

That's so sweet. Sort of reminds me of Peepers and Tweek the conures. They always groom each other, and one will call out if the other one's not there. But then Peepers will do something douchey like steal Tweek's food. Sigh.... Aww. That’s so sweet. Sort of reminds me of Peepers and Tweek the conures.

I sometimes get irritated at the Starling birds that bully the smaller birds at the bird feeder! But I figure its nature and I enjoy all the birds that come to my feeder.

(People, now that's another story) In addition to being highly intelligent and social birds, crows are incredible early warning systems for trouble. I keep the house noises to a minimum just so I can hear what the crows outside have to say. They have quite a language if you pay attention and their alarm calls are always a sure sign of a predator nearby. So if you listen closely, you may be able to catch a glimpse of what is it that they are squawking about, be it an hawk, an eagle or sometimes even a bobcat.
