Ms Crow couldn&#39;t take the risk to sleep alone in enemy territory. But actually, it was a &#34;blessing&#34; for me. Without her watchful eye above me, I was less afraid to try and grab the baby. Still, I had never grabbed a crow before, let alone a baby crow. Luckily, memories of my childhood vacations in my uncle&#39;s farm came in handy (as I carried many chickens and ducks before). ⤵️ 2026-05-28T12:24:25Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqs0grlk9p65zfjz27xyfcuc3c5h42g3dtds3d0rsrd8apcat0qdq2szyp7gy9gyunthhz8g3ggjvh65j5tymdcs9pqclssl7cj0hwyd2hcc25gmlcm In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs0zg76wdqnhayd7uwx5uwzacr4lr6vyukwnxqdmgce4xd4tg3h0ggpjewy6'>nevent1q…ewy6</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>So, I called my wife, and asked her to come quick with a towel. Which she did as fast as she could (we have to give her props here, as a sane Japanese person, she disapproves strongly of my friendship with the crows, but she also knows how much they mean to me). She came fast (it was only 300 meters or so from home) but by the time she got there, it was already night time, and Ms Crow had no other choice but to fly back to the park. ⤵️ 2026-05-28T12:21:23Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqs0zg76wdqnhayd7uwx5uwzacr4lr6vyukwnxqdmgce4xd4tg3h0ggzyp7gy9gyunthhz8g3ggjvh65j5tymdcs9pqclssl7cj0hwyd2hcc2ftlkgx In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs8vuxsdvy9v4dl25ft0t5ckj9g28t5sj3uwuynglqf7x9dc2untsqap3vkm'>nevent1q…3vkm</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I stayed with them too, not knowing what to do either. But night was slowly coming, and the baby clearly couldn&#39;t spend the night there. Yes, I know, we should let nature run its course, but you know there&#39;s a limit to that with me and these crows, I&#39;m too emotionally involved. So, I decided to cross the Rubicon and deal with the consequences later. I had to grab the baby and bring it back to the park!!! I was really unsure about how Ms Crow would react to that. Also, I couldn&#39;t just grab it. ⤵️ 2026-05-28T12:19:26Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqs8vuxsdvy9v4dl25ft0t5ckj9g28t5sj3uwuynglqf7x9dc2untsqzyp7gy9gyunthhz8g3ggjvh65j5tymdcs9pqclssl7cj0hwyd2hcc2puajd0 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsyvk2da7evxmwaeechnp9plgugewv0fsm9gs6s3vu3j54pndwhf5g8way4a'>nevent1q…ay4a</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>As I got closer to the baby crow, at first Ms Crow threatened me the way she usually does (yelling, and hitting something with her beak to make noise, although she only had a cable to do it) I stepped back, but then she stopped (did she recognize me at that moment? did her reason take over her instinct?) but she was still in panic mode, flying from one spot to another, not knowing what to do, or hoping Junior follows her, but it didn&#39;t. It stayed in the ground not knowing what to do. ⤵️ 2026-05-28T12:15:53Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsyvk2da7evxmwaeechnp9plgugewv0fsm9gs6s3vu3j54pndwhf5gzyp7gy9gyunthhz8g3ggjvh65j5tymdcs9pqclssl7cj0hwyd2hcc2g7z308 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs923l5qc703rk4cnvh8thclmjmuc5smjsux9343uxjt62we358l8cz49pct'>nevent1q…9pct</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>On the way is when I saw Mr Crow wanting to join but knowing better and his limits. Just as I arrived in the parking lot where everything was happening, the south crows finally flew away to another part of their territory. Ms Crow was staying there flying above a specific part of the parking lot. I ran there, and... Baby crow was there, on the ground, in shock and very probably injured!!!<br/><br/>⤵️<br/> <img src="https://cdn.masto.host/setouchisocial/media_attachments/files/116/652/132/516/717/746/original/b9552987839f3675.jpg"> <br/> 2026-05-28T12:12:43Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqs923l5qc703rk4cnvh8thclmjmuc5smjsux9343uxjt62we358l8czyp7gy9gyunthhz8g3ggjvh65j5tymdcs9pqclssl7cj0hwyd2hcc2gllacp In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsfd8yxfmcsz2cgwccz3dhhmt3rkva0u2uvulwaelknawht6rw3dpqmfmlfw'>nevent1q…mlfw</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Somehow (as I didn&#39;t see what happened first) the south crows lured the fledgling as it was flying and &#34;corralled&#34; it into their territory where they attacked it. Ms Crow came to the rescue, but was outnumbered. However, she didn&#39;t give up, while she retreated at first she flew right into the south crows territory (I never saw her do this before) and fought them on their turf.<br/><br/>I ran downstairs and to the south crows territory. ⤵️ 2026-05-28T12:09:40Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsfd8yxfmcsz2cgwccz3dhhmt3rkva0u2uvulwaelknawht6rw3dpqzyp7gy9gyunthhz8g3ggjvh65j5tymdcs9pqclssl7cj0hwyd2hcc29axed2 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsqrqvha5qgktv0e8rpsfjs5kjhyc8fhezd4n9pdr3fs5u6t5z99kc2az98q'>nevent1q…z98q</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I wouldn&#39;t be surprised if the overall bad reputation of crows in Japan is because of them (I can&#39;t imagine how anyone could dislike carrion crows, they&#39;re the sweetest animals)... Anyways, back to the story: so the south crows were flying all over, Ms Crow too, even Mr Crow tried to join, but couldn&#39;t really (he still managed to fly to the limit of his territory) but the general direction of the flight was toward the south crow territory...

Can the baby crow fly from the park without its parents? Not yet, right? Still, earlier, despite the three crows being on top of their poles in the park, I noticed Ms Crow going back and forth with a part of their territory behind my neighbor&#39;s house. What was there? Not sure. I returned to minding my business when suddenly all hell broke loose!<br/><br/>I heard the south crows being very loud nearby, then &#34;my&#34; crows being as loud!!! ⤵️ 2026-05-28T12:00:03Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsdpg9szwt07k34m7epafv9gn4nyph6sw8zxea0s9z52t7fvfxh29szyp7gy9gyunthhz8g3ggjvh65j5tymdcs9pqclssl7cj0hwyd2hcc2m98npk In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsfwrr27mx3rswqs02vf43vxsztew6kzaq8rja8ddqgwgz87dg47cslfw6dw'>nevent1q…w6dw</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>However, from my desk, I soon noticed not two but three crows on top of poles. But when Ms Crow flew from her pole to another one, the crow on that pole opened its mouth for food instantly! Yeah, baby crow has learned how to land on poles and such, awesome!!!<br/><br/>And I thought that was going to be my sole crow story today (not enough for a post on Mastodon). A little later, I was in my living room, shortly before dusk, and I heard Ms Crow making the big &#34;where are you, come here now!&#34; call. ⤵️ 2026-05-28T11:57:27Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsfwrr27mx3rswqs02vf43vxsztew6kzaq8rja8ddqgwgz87dg47cszyp7gy9gyunthhz8g3ggjvh65j5tymdcs9pqclssl7cj0hwyd2hcc22vc9kl Alright, this #CrowUpdate is probably my craziest &#34;crow update&#34; to date, and I hope ever.

I&#39;m just disappointed because I was really hoping to use Surf as my main Mastodon+Bluesky client. (my interest in custom feeds being quite secondary) Oh well. 2026-04-03T13:02:14Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsxu5mxlss4ws23ejwrnh3yrct5k2ws7gx56ajxyjdyfnd4zgfd3aszyp7gy9gyunthhz8g3ggjvh65j5tymdcs9pqclssl7cj0hwyd2hcc2r3fews In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqszz80k3afhx3qkjttzwp3pvvn8lh4a28w7smazq2pecj0qp63rrmqm9t4nk'>nevent1q…t4nk</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Thanks for your reply.
