I once saw a human look both ways before walking across the street and I thought “Wow. What a dumbass, he could just walk a mile to the unterpass and not have to worry about cars.”

Cool. I have seen wild turkeys do this and in a crosswalk. It is really cool.

I have not seen them using the button to request the “walking man” yet.

is savings energy

😂😂😂😂

But would a jackdaw?

I’m not an older sibling in a 90s-era kids sitcom, so I haven’t used the phrase “bird-brain” in decades…

I haven’t heard anyone say bird brain in the past decade

Also some insects dissolve in their cocoons to a handful of cells and yet still maintain memories from their larva stage

Bird neurons are significantly smaller than ours

The neurons themselves? Because human axons are already as small as can be; they sometimes missfire because of this (brain is built around that, no worries).

They also understand social order and merc crows that are excessively rude thieves and whatnot. It’s a bit brutal but it’s indicative of individual identity and longer term memory.

if they start understanding complex numbers I will get scared
