Funny that we wish we could fly, and all he wanted to do was ride in a car. Truly the grass is greener on the other side
He adored the car and would sit on top of it and yell in the morning when it was time for my husband to drive me to work. You never realized that you could recognize a bird’s individual voice but you absolutely can.
Only the neighbor’s hand, what about the rest of the body!? Ha!
I’m sorry people
It’s my hand darn you haha.
My friend raised a raven chick a few summers ago… I worked nearby and he’d come visit everyday. He stopped coming back home after about half a year.
I still miss Merlin :(
Aren’t they so personable?
that is magic thank you i needed something magical
It was magic! He’s still around, not as tame but still yells in the neighbour’s window a few times each spring.
“neighbor hand”? That’s definitely a typo…Nope, I’m the one who skimmed too quickly…
Hand-raised.

“the neighbour hand raised…”
Starlings are a plague but that’s pretty cute.
His personality was delightful. He honestly had a sense of humour.
Is this South Africa?
No! Canada.
Is that in Idaho?
Yes. Idaho, Canada.
Aren’t Starlings assholes? Or am I thinking of a different bird?
They are parasitic in North America, having been imported here in a rather interesting circumstance, but they’re very sociable.
