Tangent, want to know what is a metal as fuck looking bird that is under rated?

The red bearded vulture

Looks like something from a Dark Fantasy game. They eat entirety of bones, and do not have natural red plummage but get it from rubbing themselves against iron rocks.

Does look intense. I came home one time and had around 10 vultures on my roof. I just walked on by,

Surprised it isn't blonde.

Oh, you mean like a Norwegian sparrow.

It is legitamitely insane how smart crows are. I think I read somewhere they are on par with a child in intelligence even when raised in the wild with no human intervention with the crow.

Like they remember specific people who feed them and bring them items to either thank them or in an attempts to barter to get more food. There's other accounts that people who piss a crow off geting harassed by other crows.

There's a famous story about a town that was completely overrun by crows in i think the early 1900s. The town eventually got so desperate that they decided to start shooting them all. They ended up only shooting 1 or 2 before the whole population high tailed it out of there never to be seen again.
