Carrion crow paper shredder

The first video upload of Caróg, a Carrion crow ( Corvus corone ) I found as an abandoned fledgling on a canal towpath in June 2022. Caróg loves to play catch and shred paper. Filmed on Z-Cam E2 M4 and GoPro Hero8 cameras.

Has the crow met the fox? Your videos are sweet and life-affirming. Sharing kindness is a wonderful thing.

Hello Kriss, no the crow hasn't met the fox. The foxes are around when Carog is asleep and I think they'd like to eat him.

He's lovely! Do you plan to release him at all?

[@stevedownerfilms]

Not at present, Carog has imprinted on me and thinks I'm a parent or mate. He/she spends daylight hours in an outdoor aviary and doesn't respond to the wild crows so I think they'd attack him. I had hoped to let him fly loose in the garden but the local cats would soon get him - they watch him in the aviary. Crows are long lived, up to 20 years, so I've a while yet to decide.

UHD 4K ? Hmmmm...

[@stevedownerfilms]

You're right, KZbin hasn't converted my 4K original so I'm renaming this one and trying to upload another full resolution version. Thanks
