Part of our daily routine at the new house involves supervised playtime in the backyard with Orlando. We are usually out together near sunrise and sunset, when crow rush hour is in full force in Rancho Bernardo (video below). We wonder where they are traveling and hope to get to the bottom of it in the coming months.
Mom had a pet crow when she was growing up in Moose Lake, MN. She always talked about this type of bird being highly intelligent. Orlando and I have our doubts. The visitors who stop off here seem clumsy and obnoxious–maybe that’s just the naive human/cat perspective…
Stay tuned for future updates. There is definitely a local evening expedition in order!
