You mentioned the crows throwing nuts in front of cars to open them. I have seen a fun variation on this. When I was a royal guard, and walking guarding outside a particular castle, the crows had noticed that we walked very particular routes, so particular that you can actually see the routes as the stones are more worn there. We had steel under our boots to make sound, and they would throw their nuts on my route, using me as they do cars to open their nuts.

At 15:20 when she brings the wooden ball over to the scale, I think rather than thinking the ball is heavier than the coins, she almost immediately (and correctly, excepting a few puzzles) understands that things from the previous puzzles are important for the next. She might have thought the wooden ball was required to solve the scale.

At first when I saw the puzzles, I was thinking ''there's no way a crow can do all that''. To say my mind has been blown is a gigantic understatement

Dude a crow bending the tip of metal to pull out the bucket and then retrieving the same bucket to complete the next puzzle is just mind bending to me!!

The last part with the crow giving the nugget is just so wholesome.

The coolest part imo is when the crow tries to take shortcuts to solve the problems faster. Really shows they understand the end goal and aren't just repeating actions mindlessly.

My dad ended up getting trained by the neighborhood crows to do tricks for them... One day he noticed the crows throwing walnuts to the ground, clearly trying to break them but without much success, so he picked up the walnuts, stomped on them until they broke, and put them on the sidewalk for the crows. He did that a few more times on separate occasions, and the next thing he knew, the crows were waiting for him just to drop walnuts straight under his feet when he was passing by. They'd call him to get his attention if he didn't notice them. They trained him very well indeed... :)

I do not think I have watched a video like this in a long time, where I have been interested from the start, to end. Feeled with curiosity, that could a Crow really do all these puzzles? Amazed at every second of this crows screen time, pulled everything off. Amazing video.

I got goosebumps this was such a cool video! I have been cultivating my girlfriend relationship with my neighborhood crows now for the last 3 years. They leave me presents, they come by all the time to say hello, and follow me on my walks. One of my neighbors lovingly called me birdman yesterday, and I couldn't help but smile. Thank you for this Mr rober.

I'm a very avid bird lover and knew crows are incredibly smart, but even so I was especially blown away at the fact that she knew to bend the hook!

[tombofthememelich]

I absolutely LOVE crows! Also they are highly social creatures. I truly believe that the crow remembered Mark's portrait as a fairly recent addition to her home. I think she put 2 and 2 together and realized that Mark had something to do with her experience. I think she was trying to say that she had a fun time :)

2:30 Oh hey it’s my babies!! 🥰 I have tended 7 crows for 7 years, they come to my house for music multiple times a day. They are so cool!

[jbang]

The moment with the nugget offering to Mark was touching but the part where the crow made a hook was one of the most incredible things I’ve ever seen.

Mark, I really gotta say, you are a wonderful example of a human being. Your intelligence, compassion, and generosity (even to hungry neighborhood crows!) does not go unnoticed. You deserve all the success in life for that big heart and brain of yours. I'm always so delighted to come across your videos when you upload. I always learn something new and I'm always enjoying myself while learning and seeing the fun engineering you come up with. Please never stop doing what you're doing. The world needs more people like you so desperately.

Crows and squirrels: "Yet, you can't outsmart us."

I haven't even watched the full video jet but I'm so excited for this! Crows are so smart, and the stuff I've seen online didn't really that challenging or just reuploads, so seeing something fresh really gets me excited about crows again!

[Fleegled]

the part where the crow offered the nug to your picture almost made me cry.. like that was so adorable
