Crow gray ... rarely speak about it is good, it is usually blamed.Even if it will remember the good word, somehow casually, going directly to the list of outrages.A list of the hotties really great.
this bird, for example, very "love" someone else's nest and are in their chicks."Thanks to the" gray crows raids, the number of medium-sized bird brethren decreases periodically.Numerous morning raids on city trash containers were added wipers work.Do not lose sight of these birds and balconies on which urban residents sometimes leave something edible.And the ability to "tag" the new coat with a crow does not compare any other birds.Every evening "concert" hosted by virtually closing sky cloud bird before leaving for the night, obviously not for the nervous.
Ornithologists of the last century would have been surprised by the endless list of outrages Wives, because before the crows settled far from the cities, in floodplains and mostly in pairs, rather than hundreds, as it is now."Antisocial tricks" on their part began only because of the "conqueror" of nature - the man who became systematically destroy the "bad" birds of prey, which are so afraid of the crows.In the 50s of the last century "free shooters" were appointed even cash bonuses and incentives for the killing of birds of prey, supposedly destroying small and useful fowl.Did not the thought of the equilibrium established by the nature itself?
Deprived of their natural enemies, the raven gray began to feel very at ease and she has organized a fishing - feeding themselves and chicks daily ruining dozens of others nests.Raven population grew rapidly, with rapidly decreasing proportional "food".
and crows, following the example of the peasant prerevolutionary Russia, moved to a bad year in the city, where she found and "dairy shore" and "Kiselny river."Shnyrev of a shopping bag, then tied urbanite under its own window (not everyone could afford a refrigerator), insolent in the extreme bird devastated "food basket".And on scraps thrown from the windows, which did not disdain not only the wild dogs and cats basement, but the same crows, you can not even spread.In general, the amount of forest nahalok once grew in the cities is now incredibly rapidly.
Again "conqueror of Nature" took the gun, driven by the promise of the authorities to obtain a license for crow's feet (subsidized, of course) to shoot a different game ...
But crows cawing only contempt: "It is not those little people attacked!We are not hawks, falcons, we're smarter! ".And it was true.An amazing mental ability led crows in the city, the same ability to let go and volleys from the guns.Raven immediately realized that the person is capable of not only feeding, but also to present the muck.
compliance with safety regulations a person needs to learn from the crow.Please note: a person standing Crow wary and can not walk around at a distance of a couple of meters, but if two-legged suddenly decides to look for her, she immediately departs meters by 10. Try to take the stone immediately increase the distance meter at 20. A gun appeared "erase"crow out of sight.
reduced the number of crows is not a gun, and prices rose for food and janitorial broom.Now delicacies has not released in such quantity as wipers clean not only the middle of the sidewalk, and all the streets.
Raven - the bird is not just smart, but also the ability to learn, and learn it quickly.Should one guess that the biscuit soaked in a pool have comfortable knowledge instantly spread across a large flock of crows.If a gray cheats come up with the idea to bend the opened "tongue" canning jars with the remains, the rest will feast on occasion as well.
Moreover, the behavior of these amazing birds always adequately prevailing situation.For cats, for example, they are indifferent as to peck them very difficult, but the sick and weakened lonely kitten immediately become the object of attention crow.
biologist Manteuffel recalled in an article about how a flock of sparrows, rejoicing over the pool with a couple of pelicans decided to swim in the warm waters.Their feathers were wet, and since it was winter, began to frost up.Apathetic before crows became active persecutors.A flock of sparrows were overfished and eaten a quarter of an hour.
same teamwork and synergy occurs when the crows straighten dangerous for them stronger predatory birds.Avoiding the last one on one, the pack predator peck to death in minutes.
Moreover, raven gray - a lover of fun and can not stand boredom.Moreover, it is also fun in a group.And fun they have, of course, agreed.
One student told the Biology Department, for example, two crows, pretending to want to get into the dog's bowl, waiting to rush the dog to them.At the time when the dog attack was unfolding, another Raven grabs the unfortunate skunk decent clump of hair from the back.Entertainment continued until the dog, hurt and angry, do not clean the box.
At other times the gray robber attacked a dog peacefully gryzshuyu bone.While two of them distracted the attention of the third quickly pulled the bone.Such actions clearly did not pursue any practical purpose, since the bone was immediately ejected, and the crow flew, rather croaking.
most ornithologists now confirmed: gray crow, does not emit any beauty or size, no voice, no equal in the mind itself or among birds or among animals.With her cleverness can compete unless the dolphins but apes ...
