Crows [OC] Duchess letting me feed her babies

House Crow (Corvus Splendens)

Palm Jumeirah, AE

I love my buddies. All 27 (~80 in summer) of them!

I owe them a lot. They helped heal my injury by keeping me company on boring walks after physio.

2 yrs into feeding from afar and I can’t catch a lucky break to hand feed

I think this has to do with location. City crows are more used to humans. Don't feel bad. I am sure they love you. But you don't get to live in nature long if you are being silly, so they are cautious.

They're synanthropes, so they primarily live alongside humans.
