Ah, tis true, tis true they are very smart! I began doing my morning crow walks ( with my pocket full of peanuts ) when it wasn't getting light until much later than it does now . . . so first I would go to Cuppa Joe's to read the Globe and have my morning cup when it opens at six.
Well of course it wasn't long before my crows were waiting outside my door at the crack of dawn . . . which was earlier and earlier. I pretended not to see them sitting on the wires as I made my way to the coffee shop, which is the opposite direction from the beach, where I feed them.
Guess what? They started dropping pebbles on me to get my attention. It is true, and it was sometime before I could establish some healthy boundries around our whole relationship. Now there are two 'sentinels' posted outside my apartment to watch my comings and goings . . .but no Tom-foolery unless I head for the shore. < : I love them . . .they are smart, funny, quirky . . .and absolutely fascinating.
