Making friends with the crows
#5
I like Crows too. I don't have many visit my 2 acres, but perhaps they too are silent when they do.

I used to live in the heart of the Cognac vines and boy were the ones that lived there smart.

Crows love to eat snails, but it's sometimes hard work for them getting them out of the shells. They get them from the grape vines where the snails munch happily. That's why the Viniculteurs spray copper sulphate/lime regularly (it's called Bordelaise).

The smart Crowss would put snails they gather in the road and wait patiently on the verge unafraid of traffic for a passing vehicle to run over them and then they would hop back to grab an easy feast of "snail à la squish".

Smart.



Wisdom knocks quietly, always listen carefully. And never hit "SEND" or "REPLY" without engaging brain first.
