Always support your local Crows

Featuring the admirable, funny, and relatable patience of a parent in the video above. (54 sec, loud squawking with some airplane and wind background noise)

This is the seventh or so generation of crows I've been thankful to feed and observe in my work parking lot. I've purchased and distributed hundreds upon hundreds of pounds of unsalted peanuts, almonds, walnuts, dry dog food, boiled eggs, grapes, and more among these lovely little creatures over the years. And though I'm still ~20 years from retirement, I get sad thinking about who will feed them when I'm gone. (Who am I kidding? It will be me. I will feed them post-retirement, at least until I physically can't make it anymore). I have so much love for these intelligent little creatures.

is it normal for a fledgling to shake like this? The other isnt and otherwise its behaving normally, its alert, eating drinking and flying around

I have a family of crows that come, and this is the Mom Crow, Hazel! I was eating grapes for lunch and she showed up, so I looked up if I could give her grapes. I think she liked it!

Beaker, the father, continues to do his best to ignore his overly needy baby!

He's very fancy

Super cool. Today they ate peaches. One wasn’t a fan. The others went nuts. Funny how they have different tastes.Happy to help my friends.

Could anyone tell me what they think may be wrong with this crow that I regularly feed?

He’s been like this (but not really looking this bad) for at least two years. Early on I thought he was a baby but he never grew past a very tiny size, so it’s possible he’s even older.

He seems to be surviving, so I’m hoping whatever it is won’t end up killing him, but we’ve yet to have a harsh winter since I’ve seen him around.
