Have you been watching any of the “Big Cats” series on BBC? I love the slow-mo stuff, cats are such amazing creatures. :wubbers:

Most birds are highly intelligent - but parrots and corvids (in articular) are simply beyond belief.

Think about that every time you see a crow or raven - you are looking at perhaps the cognitive terrestrial geniuses of the animal kingdom. :canny:

Will we see tonight the super blue blood moon?
Probably not as we are just off the track.

Yeah Corvids and parrots are wonderful.

One of my great regrets is seeing a raven in obvious distress on a table in the garden as it could not fly (probably due to a cat)- I went to help but they hid under the hedge beyond my reach because they were frightened- such a huge shame - I could see the pain in their eyes - so very expressive.

It was heartbreaking. :shake head:
