    When you notice that an actual crab is growing in there, you shouldn't just leave it in the jar. You should've given it a proper home with adequate water parameters and space. His molt failed because that jar is not suitable for larger animals. It's strictly for paramecium.

    Hello. I'm admittedly going to give advice that sounds insane, but works from my personal experience. If you want a bird to more quickly feels safe with you, then you need to let them telepathically communicate with you. Yep... I learned this when i was meditating, sketching art while listening to music before work. I decided i wanted to eat some of the fruit I packed for lunch. A large group of blackbirds from the parking lot had noticed me eating, and came towards me, but kept a respectable distance. I decided to share with them, so i threw blueberries out to where they were standing (maybe 10 feet away or so). They really loved the blueberries. They even got a little bit closer. Maybe 5 feet away at most. I noticed they'd each grab a blueberry, and then hop away to create more distance before consuming it. However, there was one bird that stood closer than the rest. One blueberry had fallen from my hand and rolled towards this bird. It proceeded to pick the fruit up, and looked directly at me with one eye, as I looked directly at it. I had no expectations or intentions in this exact moment, only curiosity and a peaceful openness I likely cannot properly describe. That is when we "connected", as we stared at one another. The atmosphere of my own mind became receptive to communication from a source other than my own ego. I watched the bird's pupil suddenly shrink, and that is when I was given the understanding that the bird was not very interested in the blueberry and would prefer a strawberry it saw inside the clear container resting in my lap. Now, when I understood this, I took a strawberry out... Upon seeing this, the bird dropped the blueberry. I held the strawberry between my fingers and offered it to the bird. The bird hopped over without hesitation, took the strawberry from my fingers, and ate it right there. Unlike the other birds, this bird was without fear. And I knew it would not be scared to take the strawberry straight from my hand... Because it gave me that understanding when we communicated telepathically. Anyway, then the bird looked at me again, fluffed up really cute, took a dump, and hopped away to join the others who were further away. I laughed so hard when it pooped. It was so unexpected and funny. After such a mysterious and magical experience, I had to laugh to cope with the reality I now recognized. Telepathic communication is real... And it isn't the same as speaking... It's knowing. And it can only happen when the circumstances are playing out to allow it to happen... The meditative and creative trance I was in, as well as my feelings of peaceful contentment, were likely major factors involved in the spontaneous connection the bird and I had. . . As if this bird could sense the openness I had for a rather direct and unfiltered communication... If you want to do this too, you cannot try to force the outcome. Rather, do the opposite. Be content in the here and now, open yourself to a tranquil awareness of the unfolding of existence surrounding you. Think no specific thoughts, but rather, envelop yourself in the absence of desire for answers, outcomes, understandings. Accept that this is. And that is enough.... And look fondly, lovingly on this playing out of circumstances. An ant crawling on your finger is as wonderful a phenomenon as a bird eating directly from your hands. 💚

    I just gotta warn you, once you build a relationship with these crows, if you ever have to move, it is heartbreaking. :( When my ex kicked me out of his house, I mourned the relationship I had formed with my crows.. I still miss them.

    Enjoying your video's Like your style.. Make sure you pronounce the T in the word peanuts! Good on you.. Maybe the glass interferes with the trail cam..put it outside on the balcony...facing table and wall so there are no other background movements. Might have lt work on the angle of it so the sensor aligns with the bowl etc..

    3:44 The crow was making itself appear larger. Meaning he claimed the territory. 7:30 The crow doesn't swallow the peanut. Corvids can store a lot of food in their beak. There were too many other birds around that could steal his food if he were to open the peanut there. You can also tell by looking at the throat. If it's rounded there is probably food in there. Its really funny when they make sounds with a filled beak. It becomes all muffled. 8:22 See the white spots on the Jackdaw? That means it is lacking nutrients. Crows and magpies can also have them. 8:50 Very cool. They're so smart. If you reached that point of trust it is okay to look them in the eye. It will know you're about to throw food. If you keep this up the crows will bring their younglings. The younglings are much less afraid. High chance they'll eat from your hand if you play it crow-smart. My advice is to feed it just once or twice and then focus on the adults only. Watch how the youngling tries to get your attention.

    PS. If you ever see a dead corvid: DON'T touch it in any way and keep your distance. It is highly insulting to them if you do otherwise and you'll lose a lot of trust.

    I think it would be fun to train Corvids to collect litter in exchange for treats. You could train a flock this way and clean up a city.

    These Dutch magpies reminded me of Stibitzi as the magpie was called in the german version of the Dutch cartoon series Alfred J. Kwak , the name alluring to the fact that it had Kleptomaia. I see this experiment leading towards a picture of an obese crow begging in front of the dish with the dog food, "May i have some lööps" 2.0

    I moved from Florida to Virginia so I am sadly not feeding my beloved squirrels. But when I was, of course the birds ate too. What was very interesting to me was the different ways the birds got the peanuts. The Grackles would walk (sometimes quite the distance) to the nut, the Bluejays would swoop down and grab it. But my fav were the Red-bellied Woodpeckers. I would throw the nut in an obvious way and they'd catch it from the air like your birds. They were by far the smartest. Another thing, I think that as time goes by, the birds WILL eat from your hand. The squirrels did from mine. Also, after some time, maybe you could set up some sort of puzzle for them. I'm interested in seeing how the different types of birds react/solve the puzzle or even if they can. I know Crows can. My Rocky the squirrel could too. I love that you are feeding the birds. I noticed that duck was interested too. Aren't ducks the cutest?!?

    I had the privilege of watching my father-in-law conducting a very similar experiment over several years although he did not document any of it, it was just an interest and a pass time for him. Nethertheless there were similar interactions and developments. What stuck me at the time though as with your wonderful experiment was who is training who here? Mother nature is a wonderful and powerful entity. Are you trully training these birds or are they somehow bending you to their will. I'm not sure and obviously do not have the answer but still I feel like it is an interesting question.

    open hand takes a good while to do, it looks like a trap. try getting a large peanut or better a cashew or walnut and holding it at your fingertips so they can reach out and grab it. even after months I've had very little success with open hand feeding. also, don't look at them.

    The pigeons are so comfortable with men because we bred them in captivity to send messages for us, it's actually a sad story as soon as radio was invented we neglected them back to the wild.
