Introduction to Crow Crow refers to some kinds of crow birds, whose whole body or most feathers are black, commonly known as "crow". Bald-nosed crow is the most common species in rural areas of China. Their feathers are black with purple metallic luster. The mouth is long and thick, the base is bald, and there is no feather to cover the nostrils, so it is called a bald-nosed crow. In winter, bald-nosed crows are often mixed with other crows. Hundreds of crows fly around and sing nonstop, which makes people feel sad and bored, so they are considered ominous birds. Bald-nosed crows nest in high trees in droves. A tree can have up to 30 crow nests, and there are as many as 1200 nests abroad. Nesting materials are collected by males, and males and females nest together. The nest is rough and shaped like a laundry list. Each nest lays five or six eggs. Female birds hatch eggs, and the incubation period is 16 days-18 days. After the chicks hatch, they are fed by their parents, fly out of the nest after 29 -30 days and eat by themselves. In spring, bald-nosed crows often gather in large groups to peck at the sown corn. Sorghum and peanuts are also harmful to seedlings; But from May to July, with the increase of the number of insects, they mainly eat agricultural pests and bring them back to their nests to feed their young birds. In autumn, crows are harmful to crops. After the autumn harvest, they peck at the grains scattered in the fields and underground pests all winter. Besides bald-nosed crows, white-necked crows, western Western jackdaw crows and small-billed crows are also common. Crows are better at guessing other people's intentions than gorillas. A new study proves that crows have the same perceptual ability as primates, and their "intelligence" is not inferior to chimpanzees and gorillas. This research report was completed by two researchers from the Department of Animal Behavior and Experimental Psychology, University of Cambridge, UK, and published in the journal Science on June 5438+February 10. Crows are smarter than we know. Birds stand on the nest and let angry opponents spray formic acid on them. Birds stained with formic acid can use this "natural insecticide" to kill parasites.

The digestive system of earthworms is amazing. It can secrete an enzyme that decomposes wood fibers. As a result, some weeds, sawdust, animal bones and fishbones, eggshell skins, rags and other filth have become delicious in their mouths. According to experiments, 654.38 billion earthworms can swallow 40 tons of garbage a day. If you treat the garbage of an ordinary family, it is enough to raise 2000 earthworms. Earthworms can be described as loyal "environmental guardians". When vultures fly at high altitude, they will eat up carrion quickly once they find it.
