    So far its only been a week and I’m starting to realize that I haven’t chosen a good spot to place food and should find a spot or feeder where I can have water and the food in a nice open part of the yard raised in the sir a bit and hopefully in a spot I can aim a camera at. I was playing with dogfood and saw 1 juvenile crow only because I had set up a camera from a old phone, today I got some unshelled unsalted peanuts. I think to get the ball rolling better I need to go walk around and find some crows and lead them towards the house. I grabbed a old broke plant pot made of ceramic and broke the ceramic into small pieces so I can offer some shiny objects to the crows so maybe they either see the food better or take this as a gift and start connecting with my spot more. I don’t think I am on their normal route and we have a lot of other miscellaneous birds and dogs and cats and some small predator wild animals around and in a suburb so i don’t think it will be very easy to get them to come regularly, I was surprised to even get the one bird once.
