Nope, sorry. I like crows almost as much as chickens. This impressive guy was perched above a shop in Copenhagen. Some very stylish feathering going on there.
According to J. E. Cirlot's A Dictionary of Symbols, in Native American cultures, the crow is the great civilizer and the creator of the visible world. Celtic and Germanic tribes assigned it a similar meaning. They are also, of course, associated with death.
Some species of crows not only use tools, but also construct them. What's not to love about a DIY bird?
Skål to crows.
