I left this site a couple of years ago so i cant remember what my original name was. I felt like i was heing led on. You guys were right, the stuff about the storm and about all the bad people being taken down by military means. The stuff about biden needing to be elected so the masses get behind trump. Everything. With that being said i hope all of you who have remained here since force migration from twitter are doing well.

That would be sad.. we have the same kind of thing where I live, but it’s crows vs red shouldered hawks. Last year the hawks had a nest in the neighbor’s live oak and 3 fledglings eventually came to my tree. But I had been feeding the crows raw peanuts every morning for many years and they ganged up on at least one hawk. Feathers all over the place. But I still feed the crows. They leave me things and often let me get very close. No hawks nearby this year. The crows nest from about March until June and don’t come around much atm but they will be back. I always miss them this time of year. I started learning about them- wow, so amazing. I can be having a bad day and walk outside and they’re waiting for me every day when not nesting. We chat LOL.
Yes , I always talk to them , the minute they see me they come gathering around ,, I do miss my gentle ravens , that was terrible , crows are so jealous and can be mean but I guess it’s survival of the animal kingdom ! My ravens were much more friendly they would sit with me and take food from my hands they have a much different cry or speach !
We don’t have Ravens (to my knowledge) in my Tampa area but I’ve seen the videos. Exceptionally cool birds. That would be a dream to interact with one.
They are so sweet and gentle. I had three of them , 2 would come sit on my porch with me and hop on my legs and eat out of my hands , I really loved them. But the friggin crows would dive bomb them it was bad I tried to stop them but they are vicious . After about a week or two of getting beat up they left , first they would come about a half a block from my home and call to let me know they were there. I’d walk down and bring them food but the friggin crows dived on them there as well , they even kind of hid in the bushes and I’d throw the food in thd bushes but the crows were relentless . they left and I haven’t seen them since . I would even give the crows extra food near my house to try to keep them away from the ravens , but they’re just vicious , they’re very skittish they don’t come up to me like the ravens did . But they will come to my door and then the tree right outside my door and scream until I come out and feed them in the morning they even beat each other up , there’s different flocks .
That would be so difficult to handle! That must have been extremely hard. Wow but.. it’s a territorial dispute. Nothing but that. It happens over and over again. The crows have power in numbers but they also have their own problems. So many other threats, like larger birds going after their eggs etc.
We have the hawks and I’m always in awe. I see them all the time. They land on my fence or sit on light posts etc. One day I was trying out a new fishing rod and casting into my pool and the hawk came and watched for a while. He was hoping to steal the imaginary fish from my pool, LOL. So then one pair of hawks decided to nest very close and it was amazing, but also 3 fledglings plus two adults got to be hawkmageddon every day and I noticed it drove the crows away. This was last year. The crows were less consistent coming by for their food from me. So I waited and this year they started coming back daily but then I noticed the hawks weren’t around as much. But something new is that I can hear Eagle calls now. I’ve seen a nest about a mile away on a trail on top of a power line, so I know they’re out there. Florida has a lot of eagles, actually. But everything is different at the moment with the birds and it must be a big territory shift.
Anyway, it would be heartbreaking to go through what you did but keep an eye out because they haven’t forgotten you.
Btw Ty for bring an animal lover
You don’t have to thank me. I feel like they should be thanked for being ok with us humans, LOL. Thank you!!!!
