What is the weirdest sound you ever heard a crow make? Where they even crazier than those in this video? Personally hear them make 3x"uaahhh" in a really high tones , sounding like broken machinery/ a car that fails to start.

Sidenote: This video shows a raven sitting on a car making weird noises. I know this sub is called "crows" but ravens are allowed here as well, right?

it can be hard to describe their sounds, yes.

I was driving a few weeks ago when it was a little windy. As I was coming up on a crow in the road he didn't fly away with lots of flapping or a big jump like usual, instead he lazily half extended his wings and select>dragged himself backwards with the wind, landing with a little hop on the bank. I hope he knows how fuckin' sick that was and how much I respected him.
