I bet it can recall beautiful wedding nights, too
I want clever bird as pet.
Intelligence is not linear
He looks very hungry – ravenous, in fact.

Where's the third eye?
Ravens are amazing animals, incredibly smart.
He's huge.
“I’m the three eyed raven”
0:07 Awww how cute, they're depicting Flat Earth cultists as naughty monkeys, who are likeing one another's irrational comments! 😛
– Cool video! I've always loved watching blackbirds and ravens (any bird really) and new science emerges yearly showing how smart they are; e.g. that these birds communicate using complex regional dependent dialects.
A raven named Bran can't be a coincident.

Squirrels do a similar trick when hiding food – otherwise, other nearby squirrels will steal it. First, they pretend to hide it in a half dozen places before actually hiding the food…then they pretend to hide it in 3 or 4 further places to throw the other off. If you watch them carefully, you'll see them pretending to hide something when they're not even carrying it any more. 🙂
Interesting.
Gracias amigo! We now have Spanish subtitles for Brann and friends, thanks so much!

Shame on RI, hooray for the raven.
