It's my life mission to befriend a crow

I have a murder that visits my yard almost every day. I have a large bowl for water, I give them cheap dry cat food, and on occasion unsalted peanuts. Hope you can make some friends

Me too, though I just leave out hockey masks and spare saws for him to play with

I am only a little concerned that befriending a crow would drive a wedge between me and my dog, who would certainly see that friendship a betrayal.

I've made dozens of them in the last few years. It's awesome. They follow me on walks with my dog, and hang out sometimes near my home.

Isn't there a movie about that?
