I woke up late, and had to rush out without making breakfast. Thought I could stop by a corner grocery to get a sandwich, but when I got closer saw a sign that they were opening late, so no luck. Took a brief break to run to Starbucks, only thing open, and walking back, I looked down to see I was being rather quietly pursued by a large crow. It flapped it's wings and kept close to my feet as I walked. Clearly wanting me to feed it. And enough recognition in it's eyes that I thought perhaps I might resemble someone who feeds it regularly. (Or it recognized the bag I was carrying as something that usually contains food.) I stopped and bit off a piece of scrambled egg and dropped in on the ground. It ate it, and hopped forward. Continued to follow me to the door (and by follow, it stayed within a foot or two of me.) As I approached the door, I noticed something orange-ish in its beak. It spat that out, a moth (and when did it catch that?), and proceeded to pick off the wings, and replace all of it in its beak. Watching me the whole time. I said "goodbye" and went back to work.
Later, when I told people about the crow, someone suggested perhaps it was offering me the moth. That could be: it made a point of showing it to me, didn't swallow it, and helpfully pulled off its wings to give me the edible part.
I was giving someone a building tour later, and saw a crow hanging out in the lawn, but it didn't act familiar. And later, I had a snack for it but never found it again, so left snack by rubbish bins.
In other nature, have taken a few detours through green belts, and on my most recent encounter a hummingbird bathing in a running stream. Lots of other wildlife dashing through the branches. At the Lake, the eagles and osprey are all back prowling the waters. Lot of baby geese and ducks. The Canadian and Cackling Geese flocking en masse.
