Eating Crow. Literally.
Look at those big
black birds on ’s car.
You mean the crows?
Is that what they
are?
In the olden days
people ate crows, if they were hungry enough.
Is that true?
It was in a Laura
Ingalls Wilder book. Must be true. It tastes like chicken.
Really?
I think the book
said that. For the next potluck, I think I'm bringing crow. Enough for everyone. And everyone will love it, and say, ‘Teresa, I want that recipe.’ I will
say, ‘Okay, but you just ate crow’.
(Laughter)
I guess I won't bring crow for potluck. It's illegal to shoot them. Plus PBS says they are quite intelligent.
Really? You can't shoot crows?
Yes and they're intelligent.

Comments
Crows have always been sort of alarming to me, although I'm a birder and have lots of feeders. I'd forgotten they were smart. They're just so loud and awkward. Can't imagine they'd taste good, either!
They also have great memories.
