    Fun fact about owls: they appear to be intelligent with their large eyes and calm(ish) demeanour, but the ironic thing is that those eyes are so large that they don’t leave much room in the owl’s skull for their brain - owls are unusually stupid for their size.

        Then it’ll be the Covids for me, especially ravens. And pretty much all of the parrots, especially the African Grey.

          I love me some corvids. I’ve built up my relationships with my local clan of Jays from when I was WFH, and we have a bunch of them in the clinic now, along with a crow and a raven.

          They’re all wonderful, but I’m still biased toward the owls and raptors.
