Wild Crow Never Misses A Coffee Date With His Rescuer

Most people start their mornings with coffee and maybe a text from a friend. But for one teacher, the daily ritual includes something a little more unusual — a visit from a wild crow.

It all began when a group of students brought him an abandoned baby bird. He wasn’t sure if he would survive, but he gave the bird care, food, and a safe place to grow. Against the odds, the little crow pulled through — and when he finally learned to fly, something surprising happened. He kept coming back.

What started as an act of compassion quickly turned into an unexpected friendship. The crow seemed fascinated by everything his rescuer had, and he wasn’t shy about wanting to be part of his routines. That included morning coffee time — a moment that soon became their thing.

It wasn’t just about the coffee, of course. From pocket-picking to splashing in the bath, this crow’s larger-than-life personality made every day an adventure.

Watch the video below to see how a rescued crow turned daily coffee time into a friendship ritual.

💡 Did You Know?

Crows are among the most intelligent birds in the world, capable of problem-solving, tool use, and even remembering individual human faces. In fact, research has shown that crows can recognize specific people who have helped or harmed them, and they can pass that knowledge along to other crows in their community.

Their memory is so sharp that they often form long-term bonds with humans, especially if those humans cared for them as chicks. What looks like a quirky habit — such as visiting daily or stealing small items — is actually a sign of trust and recognition. A crow that repeatedly seeks out the same person is showing that it sees them as part of its social circle.

Crows are also highly curious and playful. They’ve been observed sliding down snowy rooftops, dropping stones into water to raise the level for drinking, and even bringing small “gifts” like shiny objects to people they like. These behaviors aren’t just random; they reflect the crow’s advanced brainpower and ability to connect with others.

So while sharing coffee with a crow might sound unusual, it’s really a perfect example of just how social and loyal these clever birds can be.
