Unleashing the Scarecrows

摘要

Crows belong to the genus Corvus, which is also the family that includes blue jays.Although there are probably more than forty species of crows, the ones that make life difficult for Oklahoma pecan growers are American Crows, and growers east of the Mississippi may also encounter Fish Crows.But a crow is a crow as far as I am concerned. The name does not matter as much as the intelligence of these birds. The brain to body weight ratio of corvids is way up there—hot too far behind dolphins, humans, and other primates, and is on par with parrots.
