A few years back I was adopted by Eugenia.
My neighborhood has an abundance of 'Fishing Crows'.
They make a very good living on the lake, need no help from anyone.

Crows are very intelligent. Eugenia can recognize me. She sometimes screams at me (hence her name). She can mimic any bird, cat, sound, etc.
Before landing nearby she will mimic a cat or hawk to clear the yard. She don't eat at the feeders, but I do keep out some suet balls for her. She don't eat much, just likes to visit.
One neighbor put out poison as they believe Crows make their property less. In fact, they clean up carrion on the lake, and make it better for us all. Those neighbors don't talk to me now as they believe I stole their critter "murder trap" where they let animals suffer and die.
I did not, but I applaud the girl who did. She is a heroine to me.
