The Swane Family

Many corvids also mate for life. They have foods they prefer more than others, and it has been discovered that they can also know and remember their partner’s favourites, and bring those treats to each other, even if they personally don’t care for this food source.

Is that love? A crow cannot be forced to do something it does not want to do, they do as they please and it pleases them to bring gifts to their partners. What is love but joy that stems from the joy of another?

Do they know what love is? A jackdaw knows that another jackdaw it can see has seen it in return - do they know that a spouse that brings them treats does it as a treat to themselves as well?

The mystery of them….

dad: no i know you wouldn’t do it on purpose and it’s stupid to get mad at someone for an accident. also, i trust my daughter’s taste in men and understand that heartbreak is a natural part of relationships. you will both hurt each other, but what’s important is being mature, forgiving, and loving through it. now, do you want a hamburger or a hotdog?
