I wrote my observations of watching crows and it was very satisfying to google crows intelligence and communication and see they were correct:
All in all, it does seem like crows have a special ability to communicate. It's mainly due to their high intelligence, but also because they live in social groups and have evolved to work together. Joe was right to notice their tendency to talk and congregate together, guard against humans, and chat with their young.Mar 30, 2022
Wow... Very interesting::: Two caws = “Where are you?” ( I will often hear a distant reply of two caws, as in, “I'm over here.”) Three caws = “Danger!” ( They'll do it whenever they see a dog or a person they don't know.) Four or more caws = Territorial. “Mar 14, 2019 (LOL I was definitely Danger when they circled me with the caw caw caw).
