I saved a crow's life about 10 years ago
About a year later he began showing up at my place, acting silly and making weird sounds. I've turned him, and now his wife, into gluttons.

my great aunt rescued a crow and nursed it
it stayed in a shed, but also came into their house, and even, i shit you not, used to RIDE THEIR DOG (a collie) to the shops. apparently the collie was down with the crowness. when it was finally fit enough to fuck off it duly did so. and that was it, they never saw it again.
except for one time. two years later it sat in a tree in the garden with its mate. eventually it flew down from the tree, came into the house, said hello to my aunt and her dog, ate some food, watched tv, and then, flew back to its mate that had clearly no desire to participate in this apparent madness.
it sat in the tree with its mate for a bit, cawed and fucked about and then buggered off.
to quote my great aunt "Crowy just came back to show off his mate, to let us know he was okay, and to say thanks"
and she never saw 'Crowy' again. and i think that is pretty fucking amazing and wonderful. my great aunt was lovely.
she also once found a message in a bottle. when she opened the bottle message simply read 'piss off'.

A baby magpie (australian one, the eurasian magpie is a different bird) left the nest in my gumtree before it could fly
apparently this happens rather regularly. it was in my backyard during lockdown, and the dogs were going nuts, so I shepherded it around the side of the house where it could stay in peace, and fed it mince until it was strong enough to flap. It hung around the general vicinity of the house for two years after that even though I wasn't feeding it, found a mate, until I found a flat runover magpie on the street.

I love that!
Crazy crows. Mine elected to remain relatively wild. About a year ago they moved, and my crow, Floyd, came by and made what appeared to be his way of telling me. They went across a small canyon where there are other crows. But he continues to stay in touch. He drops by and hangs out with me, then off he goes for another few weeks. I live for this kind of stuff.
