i have recently discovered a raven hanging out at my house. he seems to have found a perch on the side of the house. my concern is that i have a cocker spaniel
dog who plays in the yard during the day. would this bird be after him or is he harmless. I have found several dead pigions in my drive way. any suggestions on how to get him to leave

I have become fascinated with ravens/crows/corvids after witnessing an interesting behavior this week. I was driving over a busy bridge and saw a raven eyeing a piece of meatlike matter in the street. It watched as the cars passed , and when a gap came jumped quickly to grab the morsel, then went back to its perch on the metal rail. This may not seem so impressive, but I thought of the countless squirrels and chipmunks that dart right out into traffice, seemingly oblivious. This bird knew what it was doing, judged the traffic, made its move when it had a chance, and got back to safety in due course. This was in busy traffic.

I am in ocean city Maryland, there are a breeding pair in the pine trees and they are nesting right now tending to their young. One bird in particular flew down to me, sat on my deck and hopped down to chair next to me then to my arm of the chair and looked at me as if he was trying to communicate. I was stunned and barely moved due to the shear beauty of this bird. Plus, no other bird has ever done that to me. Now, I feed them and they are my true friends. A most intelligent species. I feel lucky to have had the experience and hope they stay around. Peace…

I would like to second a request for the full episode. I absolutely love the ravens, and corvids in general. Something about them draws me in and has inspired a lot of my artwork. Great music in this clip too.

Almost every time when I was backpacking in the Western U.S. a raven would visit my campsite and leave me a feather for my collection. I would spend much time talking with them and they seemed to understand what I was saying. The Navajo believe the the raven is a wise bird who was known for leading the correct way for travelers and mystic’s. When I was at an all time low in my life in the Arizona mountains the raven would leave pebbles on my windshield wiper’s to cheer me up and call outside to get me out of the house and chuckle at me. Very cool animals!

It was the raven that God sent to feed Elijah in IKings the seventeenth chapter, It is no wonder the raven is so smart!
