I think we can all agree that we have adopted Fable as ours too. Beautiful gal!

[@Pincer88]

Oh yes, you are spot on. She realy stole my heart. Glad to know her charm has that effect on more people ;)

[@karenking5357]

Only my second video and I'm in Texas USA but this is Fable is so cute part of the family now!

[@wendybuchanan2119]

Because of Fable I have a new found respect for ravens. I live in Maryland in the United States and our football team is named The Ravens!! I had no idea they could talk! When Fable fluffs up her head feathers and says boop boop it's so adorable. Thank you Fable your a great ambassador of the raven!!

[@7rays]

They’re called The Ravens because Baltimore was the home of Edgar Allen Poe…

[@Du-Masses]

@@7rays Poe’s Raven could totally talk “nevermore”

[@7rays]

@@Du-Masses But the Raven, sitting lonely on the placid bust, spoke only That one word, as if his soul in that one word he did outpour. Nothing farther then he uttered-not a feather then he fluttered- Till I scarcely more than muttered “Other friends have flown before- On the morrow he will leave me, as my Hopes have flown before.” Then the bird said “Nevermore.”

[@infallibleblue]

I love Fable! She’s so big and smart!

[@Margar02]

They used to be my team back when they were dogs... Hahaha Clevelander here. 😁

[@naturalthemelodious]

Fable doesn't even look like the same bird when she's younger! She really grew into her feathers

[@daf827]

You two have come a long way together. Love the way your Pointer interacts with Fable. Very gentle and respectful.

[@georgehenderson7783]

Absolutely amazing how this dog and this crow get along so well!

[@gerryjames9720]

Really kept waiting for Fable to give the dog's nose a good twist. Was grateful that didn't happen, though honestly surprised 😆

[@puppetsock]

If I ever get a bird of a species that can talk I'm going to teach it to say: Birds can't talk.

[@daf827]

@@puppetsock Brilliant. Do it!

[@LazyIRanch]

@@puppetsock YES! That would be adorable. There was a raven I met many years ago at a wildlife rehab center who had been raised in captivity so it couldn't be released to the wild. They had him in a large aviary and he seemed very happy. I was so surprised when I was visiting one day and he seemed to remember me, and he said, "Hello!" He repeated that several times. Then I started to walk away and he cawed, "Come BACK!" ❤

[@lauraleephd]

I love Fable, and the curious dog!

[@jackychuplis9512]

Ever since I discovered fable the raven I’ve wanted to befriend the local ravens 🥰 they’re such incredible and intelligent creatures and I don’t think most people realize that.

[@AllegedlyHuman]

I encourage you to do so! I've had a fascination with corvids for years and began feeding unsalted peanuts to a small local crow colony this summer. It's been really great, and since they live about half an hour away on foot, it's really helped me get out more

[@Astronurd]

They can also be wicked and evil. Don’t let the domesticated Fable fool you

[@Kenny-yl9pc]

[@ideacastilluminate]

Thanks for sharing Fable with us when she was but a wee Parable! My wife and I have enjoyed getting to know her in the last year or so, so this enriches that experience. I hope your new family is well as well, cheers from Florida!

[@CrescentMoonPye]

Ditto! Only from Chicao IL, lol 💚🤗

[@gillianloomes-quinn1289]

Parable!

[@JS-yj7ow]

That was a delightful 9 minutes. I have three(ish) small families of crows that follow me around the neighborhood when I’m walking my dog, a large white “arctic shepherd”. They trust me and my dog enough to land within 3-4 feet, waiting for little kibble treats. My dog pays them no mind, but I love the way your pointer is so curious.

[@Sheltieshangrila]

I'm in FL too. Wish we had ravens here. I had no idea how much bigger they are than crows.

[@darcyferrigno]

I love when Fable is looking in the grass and the the doggie is like "I wanna see what you have" So adorable.

[@dracoelynne]

it's so neat to see Fable when she was younger--the lighter eyes, light pink mouth, and fleshy parts around the corners of her beak are all "fledgling bird" indications that I'm very familiar with from seeing them in crows--neat to see them on a raven. :D

[@serioushex3893]

FABLE LEARNING TO BOOP. This is the best video ever. she really was such a goober growing up. Feed me! Waaah, feed me!

Have to say I was a bit worried at the start.

@@fasthracing A well-trained dog is truly a wonderful thing! I was slightly anxious at first too but then I just watched in fascination Lion and the Lamb play in the water trays.

@@wingsandwildlands She woke up my speckled beast by making me laugh so loud. Good girls.

[@lenwenzel7440]

I love watching Ravens; Fable is so interesting. One my favourites is watching aerial acrobatics. I remember seeing one doing a barrel roll for the first time, and I realized they often flew for the sheer joy of it. It's a funny feeling to realize an animal experienced life in way that was joyful and fun, and mischievous. Many animals play, and that makes them more like us than not. I love seeing you and Fable interact, thank you for the video post.

[@brunomarcato4591]

Moving to a country with ravens made me notice that too! Some of them obviously fly for fun, it's so cute seeing them play in the air! Also makes me think of how much of human life is still so animal-like! Among birds, ravens and parrots feel way too conscious, just like octopi for mollusks! It honestly baffles me that my philosophy teacher still insists animals have no minds lol

[@mamaboocee]

Oh this is a treasure! Yes, like another commenter said - we have ALL adopted Fable and love her!!

[@JohnSmith-uy7sv]

If you adopt someone or some thing that means you must contribute. I'm just a fan and a watcher. I don't contribute. 😃

[@mamaboocee]

@@JohnSmith-uy7sv that's okay, many of us cannot contribute but did you know that just watching, liking, subscribing and commenting DOES contribute to the channel here on you tube? Likewise, watching a channel that is questionable and giving a thumbs down and commenting your feelings about it also contributes to that channel which is why I stopped watching certain channels about macaque monkeys in Asia. I learned that those videographers do not have the animal's best interst at heart, so I avoid them,, or report them if I end up viewing by mistake - but that's a whole other story! Negative or positive, just watching and commenting contributes! So, see? You HAVE indeed contributed!

[@JohnSmith-uy7sv]

@@mamaboocee Yes, I knew all of that. I meant by money. But, I stopped watching from the last video when she made the statement of millions and millions of years. I don't knowingly watch or support atheist channels. So sad that so many people choose to believe man but deny the Christian Holy Bible and Genesis chapter 1. "all of man's wisdom is but foolishness to God." 😥
