    I feed my local crows peanuts every day. I really like crows, but I still find it incredibly amusing when the local bluejays - who are like 1/3 the size of the crows - chase them around and beat the shit out of them. It’s not even a numbers thing, I’ve watched a single bluejay chase off the whole family of five crows.

    The crows do the same thing to red-tailed hawks whenever they show up, but it’s always five-on-one in those situations. Bluejays way more badass.
