Epic Cat Fight (cat's horror)

In recent years biologists have practically rewritten the human knowledge about the intelligence of many bird species, and the anatomy of bird brains, it is now understood that most birds in general are much ,more intelligent than previously was assumed possible due to erratic knowledge of their brain structures.

I would give a week's loan to learn what those two birds were thinking and why they put a bid into the fight. I am sure that close-by nests had nothing to do with it.

I also think that emotions and humour should be understood as side-effects of intelligence, which raises even more interesting question-marks about the crows' behaviour. We know that ravens love to play in snow and love to play falling through the air, they often cannot stop to do somersaults through snow and empty air, for no apparent reason. When seeing that in films I cannot help but to conclude that they do it for the mere sake of that the enjoy it and laugh their feathery rear-ends off .

My grandfather had a green parrot. Don't get me started about what individuality in character that bird was showing! Beats a dog or cat easily.

Surprising cleverness you can see even in tiny unobstrusive ordinary birds like tits (? =Meise), if only you invest some time in observing them. In wintertime they come often onto my balcony. If I have the time I watch them long times then. After some time you believe you can recognise individual birds by their typical behaviour. And some of them can be surprisingly courageous and cheeky. I once had one of them in the room. It did not opanic at all, but exmained all and everything, carefully but thorughly. I was stunned, while the squirrel that also once entered, just amused me.
