I saw a crow so overheated that he was dying for water, so I quickly got some out for him.
To my surprise, he started following us around right after drinking.
I pulled out some crackers and fed him.
Then he flew right onto my shoulder.
It looked like he wanted to tag along with us, so we brought him in the car.
Once home, I gave him more water to drink.
I could tell my wife absolutely loved him too.
Probably because it was so hot, he hopped right into the pool to take a bath.
Hahaha he looked like a total drowned rat, so cute.
I dried him off with a blanket. ❤️❤️❤️
Then took him outside to let his feathers air dry.
My daughter played with him using a toy.
He seems to be obsessed with the ball.
He turned out to be a little pro at picking things up.
He is really extremely intelligent.
I bought him toys, and he's super smart.
And just like that, he became part of our family.
He spent his first winter right there with us.
