Definitely a smart bird. That's probably the same one that dropped a bullhead in my pond.

He stocked my pond with carp.

It is impressive.

What kind of bird was it if anyone knows?


Excerpt from Robert Crais' "The Monkey's Raincoat:"
"She took another microscopic bite of her sandwich, then pushed it away. Maybe she absorbed nutrients from her surroundings."

It's definitely a crow of some kind. There's no mistaking the beak, head, and behavior.

CJBS seems to think it is not a crow.

The pond or BOW shown in the video obviously has human hands in it.

I wonder how the bird made the connection of fish eating bread.

Perhaps watching people throw bread in to fish or ducks.

I'm going out on a limb and saying I do believe that fish intentionally stock waters to provide ongoing forage for themselves.

Every time I go to Youtube for something like this, before I leave I go from squirrel fishing, to bass eats squirrel, goldfish in a blender, cow eats duck, lions kills giraffe, hippo eats buffalo etc, etc....

Just do it...

rmedgar, that bass eats squirrel one is pretty cool. People must have a lot of time on their hands. Of course who am I to talk I'm watching it.

Sometimes I think fish intentionally exhibit behavior that causes humans to dig ponds, stock fish, feed them, and protect them from drought and predators.

Wait, wait, fish stock waters?

It's in the slime. Fish excrete an enzime or something when they detect a human that has the potential to be lured to building a body of water in which his species can procreate so that individual will indeed dig that hole or dam that crick.
I believe that.... I'm with Sunil.

I guess I should have wrote, "Not an American crow"... There are three "crows" in North America. The common crow, the fish crow and the raven... Not very familiar with Eurasian species of birds, so I stand corrected! It was in fact a crow, and a darn smart one at that!
