Haha. I remember this song from somewhere.
It does seem that the crow wasn’t trying to kill the hedgehog. Interesting.
I like to leave snacks for the crows and see where they hide them for later attention. They even recognize me when I come back to visit the same area and call out to their friends. If you spend enough time around crows you can kind of work out what their calls mean and predict what they might be up to next. Around here if you have a white plastic bag (eg; from a convenience or grocery store) and leave it unattended, it’s almost a guarantee that crows will gather and wait for the time that enough distance is between me and the bag before they swoop in and take a look or even just pick up the bag and hang it in a tree for later inspection.
