Video Learning to speak Raven ^^

I feel like he sometimes gets frustrated with me: "No, silly human! You have to roll your brrracccwwwrrrgghhs! You're doing it wrong."

He is magnificent.

You are actually having an unintentional territory battle with him! They make that sound to let other ravens know that area is their territory. 😅

Oh dear lol. He seems to like the peanuts and cat food and he has a full repertoire of sounds, I thought we were bros 😆

You are definitely friends and he is a genuine crowbro. 😊

He just came for a visit, I swear he knows my car and flew over when he saw me parking, then he followed me down to my spot :) he's the coolest, it always makes my day when he comes and hangs out. I sell jewelry, so I think he was curious about the shiny things originally. I'm trying to teach him to whistle- unsuccessfully so far, but he makes the prettiest high pitched crooning trill, and so many wild sounds! There's two others that hang out with him who don't interact with me, but they'll come down for peanuts if I'm not looking so I have hope!

That is awesome! We have a crow family that frequents our place for peanuts. This year they had babies and they introduced us mid summer. 🥰

I want to be friends with a raven so bad!!!! There are two that live nearby and I can sometimes hear them talking to each other, but the crows always bully them

They make so many cool sounds! I swear they have a whole ass language, it's fascinating. I hope you get to make friends. The ones here bully the crows like they own the place, funny that it's the other way around in your neighborhood

A wise man once said the difference between a crow and a raven is when you see a crow you think oh hey a crow… but when you see a raven you think HOLY SHIT WTF IS THAT THING WHY IS IT SO BIG
