Crows used to pester my old boston terrier like that every day. Then one day I got sick of it and went out in the yard with a bb gun and killed one and my boston ate it. They left her alone after that.

Thanks for the ping.

I'm not a birder but Flycatcher got me interested and recommended a very good book. Unfortunately it doesn't show a crow like this but I found one on the Internet, seems they're called a white crow though this one isn't all white. The link shows one almost identical to the one in the video though.

Pretty cool :-)
However, if one of those cats was our now departed Yellow Tabby 'Boots', the Crow would have been dinner.

Totally false. The cats were already starting to fight. The crow sensed it and was trying to break it up. If you notice, the black cat was already poised to attack the whiter cat...

PS...nothing funny about this. There is going to be some broken bones and wounds out of that fight. What kind of person enjoys watching that?

That was hilarious! I have never seen two cats go at it like that before. They were still locked in combat after falling from the roof. For a while, when it got quiet down in that stairwell I wondered if they were both dead. Then a puff of orange fur floated up.

Crows and ravens are very intelligent. Ravens In Winter is a great book about an author who spent several winters studying raven behavior. It isn't dry reading at all.
