#7A friend is someone you’ll spend time around given other options. If you’ve spent any time getting to know crows (or jays, or any other corvids), it’s quite obvious this is the case. I had a scrub jay who’d perch on my foot while I read in the morning. I considered him a friend, and by that standard, he me.

This is just crow slander, they're magpies. So corvids, but not crows. And the people are walking under their nests.

Australian magpies are not really related to the crow familie (which includes magpie).
And, from my experience, don't atteack random people but those that got to close to their nest. Whatever their definition of close is.
