I had a seagull land on my shoulder and bite my ear in Padstowso I would scream and drop my chips. The fucker nearly pulled it off, but I hung onto those chips like my life depended on it.

Birds are smart little fuckersyou seen the Crows/ravens/black coloured Birds in Japan that use the passing traffic to crack nuts and wait for the green crossing man till they go pick up the pieces so as not to get run over?

That's more evolutionand natural selection than being smart.
All the birds that crossed when the man was red died and so couldn't pass on their genes.
The birds that preferred to wait for a green signal lived and bred.
Soon all the birds in the world will only move when a green stick figure is visible. It's the future.

It's a learned skill rather than a genetic trait, though. It may well be that the birds that use the cars to crack nuts are more intelligent, thus they survive to make more birds. What will happen to them if the sequence of the lights change or we run out of oil is another matter.*

WowI hadn't, but just found it
I know that family of birds in particular can be smart, but it's still pretty damn cool to see

I met some birds in New Zealand called Keathat pull the rubber out from the back window of you car so they can get in and steal stuff.
