This strikes me as very strange. The cat is trying to take a nap; the bird is trying to get him up. Parrots or parakeets might do this–but a dove? Why is this dove so totally unafraid of this cat? Why doesn’t the cat harm the bird? Honk if you can explain what’s going on here.
A few more bird antics. Gee, they are really clever!
The baby quail was just a little bigger than his thumbnail, and he successfully raised it to adulthood. And then, look at this–a whole platoon of little tiny quail! And it seems they really like their human.
A little glimpse of paradise.
Turkey and crow argue over what appears to be a little piece of bread. Suddenly the turkey seems to give up his claim of ownership. What’s going on here? Did the birds negotiate this deal? They may be sharper than we thought.
Just how do you go about getting a crow in your house? That’s the hard part: taming the crow and teaching it to talk, that’s the easy part. I wonder if a crow could learn to answer the phone.
Tasty nut hidden under the stones: can the crow get at it? Crows are pretty smart, and this one’s very determined, too.
That odd sound you hear at the end of the video is the crow’s victory song.
Crows are smart. Give one a gift-wrapped package, and he’ll figure it out. Up to a point.
“Hey! You put the treats inside this plastic thing! You think it’s easy, unwrapping a package when you don’t have hands? All that work–and my treats are locked inside this lousy puzzle?” (Getting smarter already…)
