If you have any doubt that some species of birds are highly intelligent, watch what this crow does. What the bird is doing is very different from performing a trained act; the bird is actually solving a multi-step puzzle it’s never seen before. This bird was also mentioned in my interview with the author of The Bird Way, Jennifer Ackerman.

JACK: YOU HAVE AN OUTSTANDING VOCABULARY, THANK YOU FOR THAT NEW WORD WHICH IS GOING TO BE VERY HELPFUL FOR ME. I WAS IMPRESSED WATCHING THE CROW!
I’m watching a show about squirrels right now, and wow, they are super smart, too. A tree squirrel can actually remember the location of 9000 nuts that it buries in the fall for the winter!
