So I'm in the hospital in bed and they give me a room with an outrageous view of the Hudson. I didn't even turn on the tv the view was so great. Around dusk I get this great symbolic exhibition of nature where a steady stream of crows starts flying by my window. It's wasn't a big flock, it was a steady stream that went on for about 20 minutes. I never knew there were so many crows in the whole world and of course they are all flying straight north. Like I said highly symbolic if you've ever read Joseph Campbell. In reality what was probably going on was they knew there was a building with bad insulation that was losing a lot of heat through the roof so they were heading there to find a nice warm spot to roost for the night. Crows are as smart as a smart dog.

Suckers live 25-30 years. And they have a remarkable memory.

Yes they are amazing. I love animals except for those aggressive dogs.

I have had to 'Eat Crow' on several occasions in my life.
Can't really say that it was an enjoyable experience.

wonder if the bird figures it chewing on diction?
