I left /c/Risa because the moderator there was letting his own personal feelings color rules, removing posts that violated no clearly written rules, and creating new rules without even running it past the community or asking how they feel about it.
The moderator of this community is guilty of that same behavior.
I'll be over on !whitepeopletwitter@sh.itjust.works.
Do you have dogs? You will not be able to befriend crows if you have dogs or cats. They will always immediately fly away. I tried to befriend our neighborhood crows for years, with zero success. They'd always fly away, like you said. But within a week of our dogs passing, the crows stopped flying away when we went outside. Idk how they know, but they know.
That's plausible.
Fenced in, three legged, and old for a dog.
If I were a crow I might even be hanging around for the dog.
The crows I've seen seem to do this based on which dog it is. I've seen them stay put when it's a dog on a leash, but fly off when it's a dog that seems too playful/fast and isn't secured on a leash.
