    I wish I could fly my sled back up...

    Saw this on facebook. It's the cutest darn thing ever. Proof that crows are pretty darn intelligent. And like a good time, too.

    It's public, so you should be able to see it even if you're not on facebook.

    It is amazing; I saw it, or something VERY similar, about a year ago, and was really impressed by the bird's ingenuity. Just not sure whether it's Corvus monedula or Corvus corone cornix, but I'd say it's the former; both are really clever, but the first one can do miracles, understand human speech, to a certain degree of course, and I've heard that some can even learn a few words. Thanks for sharing.

    Very cool. Growing up, I always thought crows were some of the smartest birds out there. Apparently, crows have reasoning ability rival to five to seven year old children.

    ETA: I loved this video: Smart Crow uses cars to crack nuts in Akita, Japan near Senshu Park - YouTube
