Una scena cui ho avuto modo di assistere qualche settimana fa. Una cornacchia si era procurata una golosa preda e pregustava il momento dell’assaggio…
…ha alzato un attimo la testa e mi ha visto…
…ha preso il suo bottino e se n’è volata a mangiare in pace altrove!
Le cornacchie (Corvus cornix) sono diffuse anche in Finlandia, anzi si trovano molto bene in quel clima. Sono volatili estremamente intuitivi e furbi: non temono l’uomo e sono capaci di sfruttare la sua presenza; è stato dimostrato che hanno imparato a disseminare noci sulla strada e attendere che il passaggio delle auto rompa i gusci per loro.
Wild Hunting Scenes.
I saw this Hooded crow hunt a prey and set about eating it…but he saw me too…so he took up his delicious bit and flew away from me to enjoy it in privacy. Hooded crows are widespread in Finland as well as in Italy. They survive very well in the Finnish climate and eat various types of food. They are clever and not afraid of man. Scientists have discovered that hooded crows have learnt to throw nuts on roads and wait for cars to crash them, in order to get the kernel easily out.
