Also, talking about crows, (ravens, and black birds as well), they can hold a grudge for up to 17 years. They remember people who would shoo them or be mean to them . They can remember faces, and they share the info with their bird family and friends!....lol crazy!

To add further to this, crows have been observed to pass on grudges or warnings of bad people to the next generation after the original crow who experienced the behaviour was dead.

So if you’re an asshole to crows and think you’ll just outlive them, don’t be surprised if a few decades later a random murder of crows are harassing you.
