Crows live in close knit family groups.
I recently watched as a crow repeatedly hopped down inside a dumpster and brought out food, leaving it with its mate, who was keeping an eye out for danger. I've also observed crows taking turns standing guard as the group bathed in a rain puddle. A few years ago, I had the privilege of witnessing one. It was an unforgettable sight. Then there's the often repeated story of the crow raised by a British bird behaviorist.
