Crows

Crows (2005) by Candace Savage

Encounters with the Wise Guys of the Avian World

I have been a casual observer of crows for most of my life, and this book was a real eye opener for me.

Crows have about the same brain/body ratio as chimpanzees.

They not only use tools, they make them.

Thousands of crow vocalizations have been identified.

I have a larger respect for crows after reading this book.
