    I’ve been wanting to give my local maggies and crows a treat, there are heaps in the few tall trees in my street. I love the crows, they’re so shiny!

      We have crows in Melbourne, but the most common is actually the Little Raven. I think it’s so cool that we have ravens tbh, the little Poe fan in me squeals haha.

      They’re all very intelligent, magpies, crows, and ravens; so if you do give them treats, theyll actually remember your face and tell their mates. So smart 😍🐦‍⬛

        Ah cool, happy to be corrected on the raven/crow thing. Quoth the raven, “gimme more! (of Melba’s gourmet kibble)”

      Be careful not to make the treats too nice… I already had neighbourhood cats wanting to book a stay and now the birds want in too!

      I think it’s the same maggie that came right up to my visitor today to see if she had anything
