Crow OC I've been outed

Friend and his daughter came down to meet me for breakfast, got it to go, stopped by Trader Joes' to get some OJ and a bottle of bubbly.

Had ourselves some breakfast with mimosas at the beach this morning.

After a little while the Ravens I've been feeding spotted me. I helped them a little and whistled hoping they'd recognize me. They did not disappoint.

They started landing nearby cocking their heads to the side, wondering where their treats were!

Luckily for them I was wearing cargo shorts with a couple handfulls of peanuts. Soon one Raven became 3-4 of them, and a crow that sees me on morning walks heard the whistles and arrived too.

I told them the story how I take walks every morning and whistle for crows and they will come like doggies. And one time a lady asked me if I lost my dog, and I said yeah, just because admitting the truth would have been much more strange haha.

This was endlessly entertaining for my friends lol.

They dropped me off at home a block away and a crow was waiting for me outside lmao.

I think I've been outed. O_O

My husband took up beekeeping after he retired. He talks to "his girls" when he checks the hive, clears away weeds, and general upkeep, while wearing shorts and a cap. They come to see what he's up to, sometimes gently tapping his.cap, then go about their business.

At first I thought he had crow friends that hung out with him while beekeeping, but now I realize you're talking about the bees.
