The Black Crow Tango

Crows love macadamia nuts.... a lot. But who knew they could grab three at a time.

Sidd, you can even make crows look cool!

Crows scare me. Ever since that time I was sitting on a playground and they started gathering on the monkey bars behind me and when I looked up at them they all attacked....

Never mind. That was a movie. But they still scare me.

Thank you Steve.

Originally I wanted to see of what was prowling the backyard at night so I put the macadamia nuts out and a night camera. I was surprised to see that is was the crows eating up everything. Of course that had to be made into a GoPro moment. I did not expect them to be able to grab 3 macadamia nuts at the same time. And the mid air collision was unexpected.

Things you do to entertain your self during a pandemic.

BTW the actual house used for the filming of the Birds move is only a couple of hours from our house.

If you think you were surprised, I'll bet the crows weren't too happy about it either :) .
At the price of macadamias it would get to be a bit expensive feeding the crows too often. A great idea for an entertaining video! And like Bob said, the music was spot-on. :TU:

Dave & Bob thank you. That music just felt right especially when the crows were moving their heads around. I was also trying out the Anamorphic Lens that is designed for the GoPro 9/10 and I like the look of the footage.

To me it looked like the bird that hit the deck seemed a bit dazed afterword and just kind of stood there.

We had a bag at home and when I went to get some to eat the bag was expired six months, instead of letting them go to waste I thought the crows might enjoy them.

Thank you mom. I did not even realize the birds hit each other until I was scrubbing the video. I was cracking up. Thank you for watching.
