The crows where I live are fond of Cheez-its. They also like peanuts and popcorn (unsalted), but I tend to not feed them too much junk food. I did this to show my children that crows are good birds and will protect the area from bad birds like Purple Martins and Blue Jays, both of which are highly destructive. I'll take the crows as neighbors any day.

- stirfrykitty 7y agoNo worries. Chocolate is terrible for animals, particularly dogs and birds. I was shunned for a few weeks by some Marines when stationed in Japan for sticking up for some seagulls. Our barracks was situated along the coast (literally) and there was an elevated seawall that ran for about 5 miles around the base. Marines would purchase Alka-Seltzer tablets by the box and walk along the seawall tossing them into the air where the birds would catch them. About 20 seconds later, the bird would explode from the tablet. I rained verbal hell down on them and was told I was a pussy and all that, but I explained to them they are damaging an ecosystem that is balanced. Typical idiots with no care or knowledge of anything. I earned the name green weenie and tree hugger in the platoon even though I'm neither. I just believe in being a good steward of resources.
- jelliclesfarm 7y agoWow..that’s messed up. That’s the kind of classic behaviour clue in kids that would indicate that they’d likely be psychopaths or sadists when they grow up. And these were grown up and were marines as well..
