I’m sure it’s happy to be caged…

Worrying about a crow in the snow kinda feels like asking about a husky in someone’s backyard. It’s doing better than you are for sure
Gwimyeon
Oh Fable, I haven't seen you for long..

Let that bird free dammit! Why would you cage anything at all?

I wish I tested positive for corvid!

Fable (the raven) is quite literally wearing a down jacket, the way nature intended!

While this is raven, the Demon Slayer crows just became 100% believable to me lol.
Nooooooooooooooooooooo

I love Corvids, thank you!!

Bird down/feathers are some of the best insulators you can get. Like if you get a jacket with manmade synthetic insulation, it tends to break down after a few years, while a good goose/duck down insulated jacket can last decades

MUCH WOW

I would never trust a bird with a beak like that so close to my eyes... 😶😶

This is me, everyday, but with wild birds! (The one in the video is Fable, born in captivity with a close family bond with the owner, a falconer and educator living in Scotland. Wings and Wildlands on YT if anyone want to have a look!).
I have yet to fear for my face/eyes (I haven't even been properly pecked anywhere else in all these years either), what I DO fear with handling wild birds are diseases and illnesses, both as spreader and reciever.

I'm guessing you don't drive, and allow people in one ton metal boxes that close to you
ArcherPointingFromTheComments
Motorists have to pass a test to be able to drive and face severe consequences for misbehavior. A smart bird has no such requirements. What a silly comparison. People don't often lie down on the road and let cars within an inch of their faces, do they?
relsky
That is exactly my thought! And I know that's a me problem. I'm sure she's completely safe with that bird, but DANG that is a large and intimidating beak...
RecurringNightmare
eh depends on the bird...if its used to humans and not agressive its fine, they wont hurt you intentionally, or only with enough warning to get your face away...with wild animals its a different thing, they might attack without much warning and some of them actually aim for the eyes in defence, so you gotta be careful there...also with chicks, they might have a drinking reflex and go for anything shiny, thats dangerous but also will go away after a while once they learn what actually is water...

Many years ago I used to work with birds of prey at a zoo. A big vulture, an eagle, some hawks, etc. They mostly were rehabbed wild birds that couldn't return to the wild due to injuries. I used them in education programs and would hold them on my arm like that. Most were quite tame due to frequent interactions with zoo keepers. I never was bit on the face but in the middle of a public presentation the stupid vulture bit me on my nipple, through my shirt. And drew blood. Not fun.
insaaanity
A vulture, too, of all things, if there's one kind of bird whose saliva I don't want entering my bloodstream...
Californiajackson
Gahd, I love corbids.
SubtleOrc
corvid but yes
Californiajackson
Yeah, unfortunate typo.
Rubyrose99
I prefer "typing accents." I mean whats the difference? Like a real accent, Sounds a bit different but most everyone can get the message
ToenailClippingsJar
If you’re like me with big hands, typos are very common. Don’t worry aboutnthem!
Californiajackson
I see what you did there.
cousteau
I totally misread it as "corbirds" and thought you were making a pun.
paradr0id
Oh but many years ago i was a grammar nazi myself, could not stand a mistyped word and HAD to notice and correct. Four centuries later i barely notice it anymore as i now see what i should have seen back then...all happy little accidents
Californiajackson
I, too, am a grammar nazi (notice the meticulous placement of commas). I am also a terrible thumb typist. Competing needs. I decided the use of "Gahd" made it look like I was maybe just talking funny on purpose and said, "Fuck it". (I know--I've split the verb. Suck it up LOL.)
ConsumerOfStories
...I was expecting more of an accent
zeusfdelta
That’s just how Scottish Corvids sound。。。
IDontKnowWhatToDoAnymoreAndImTired
I had no idea that they could speak that well. I assumed it was more squalky, like a parrot.
mouthfullofpebbles
The voice mimicking with most clarity is often from large corvids like Fable in my experience. A starling will sound like a little toy speaker, and parrots usually have their own distorsion depending on individual and type of parrot.
...Imagine a time before electric lights, bicycles or eyeglasses, walking at the edge to the woods at dusk, just poking the goats home from grazing, and a big black blob up in a tree says HELLO in the stolen voice of the long dead hermit up on the hill.
