Welcome to the blog. Hope you enjoy your stay.

Because my stories have bite, they can contain content that isn't suitable for work or children. Not a lot of truly graphic sex or violence, but there are some questionable or heated posts.

F-bombs are not uncommon, so watch your footing.

Raven vending machine

My roommate showed me on awesome video over on ted.com This guy is making a vending machine for crows. crowboxunleashed.com is the site to read up on it.

I think it's an awesome idea. If we had more than grackle's here, I would want to build one. But I don't think grackle's are quite clever enough for it.

What I loved most about watching his video is Betty the New Caledonian crow. I already knew New Caledonian's were tool users, but I was blown away when Betty made a hook out of a bit of wire to get a treat out of a container. It was freakily awesome.

But I'm a zoo nerd like that.
