In early February, I had the joy of talking with The Corvid Corner from TikTok. If you listened, then like me, you might've been blown away about the intelligence, loyalty and cleverness of crows.

As I confessed in the opening minutes of that episode, I haven't always been a bird fan. In fact, I suffered my first panic attack inside an aviary at Seattle's Woodland Park Zoo. I attribute it to too much Alfred Hitchcock as a kid, and not enough Mary Poppins. During the episode, I meant to share some of my early experiences with crows and how my love has grown, but a virus hijacked my brain, so this episode is a necessary supplement to the conversation.

Soon after becoming a mother, my heart changed. I saw those winged creatures like my babies, as delightful parts of our community.
