My backyard is a daycare center for the three crows that were hatched this spring. They sit quietly fidgeting in the walnut tree and come down when there's something to eat.
This morning I was sitting on the deck and noticed Marcello the cat lying right next to my chair. I reached down and began to scratch him up. Immediately I heard a racket in the tree, looked and saw the little crows on their branch, flapping and cawing at me. (Don't touch the cat! Don't touch the cat!)
I don't know why they were so bothered- Either they were sending me Mom's "Danger of bodily Injury" alarm, or they were telling me to quit fooling around and bring them a couple of peanuts or chicken or something.
