...where even the crows do funny things with cars it appears. And likewise, they apparently have others videotape their shenanigans for uploading to YouTube.

While recovering from surgery a few years ago, I spent a lot of time on the front porch watching the world go by and the crows were always entertaining. There is a murder of crows that frequent my trees because I feed the birds during winter and they like to come over and just mess the them. I swear.

- Crows are flying frat bros.

Then there's Julian the Crow who plays in the snow.
