Creepy Masks
- Kaylee Swift's research involved using masks, originally molded from real people's faces, to test crow recognition.
- Later, custom-made, creepier masks were employed, adding to the unusual nature of the research.
Crow vs. Raven
- Crows and ravens, while similar, differ in size, tail shape, and throat feathers. Ravens are significantly larger with wedge-shaped tails and textured throat feathers called hackles.
Unusual Crow Behaviors
- Kaylee Swift observed crows exhibiting surprising behaviors around deceased crows, including touching, aggressive pecking, and even sexual acts.
- This is thought to be related to hormonal shifts during breeding season and displacement behavior.
