Crows are everywhere: they are found on nearly every continent and thrive in human dominated environments. They have influenced art and literature throughout history, and whether they inspire love or hate, they have certainly impacted the hearts and minds of the humans who share their space. Because crows are so common, it may be easy to overlook the fact that they are very intelligent and have complex behaviors and social structures.

In this sequel to her two of her extremely popular talks on corvid behavior, avian behavioral ecologist Kaeli Swift, PhD, will continue her exploration of the corvid brain behavior to include areas of research on how crows have co-evolved with people and how this is reflected in their behavior and ours. She’ll touch on mythology, commonly asked questions about crow human interactions/conflicts, and new research.
