Sometimes I wish I could talk to birds and negotiate alliances and trade deals with them.

Can't talk to them, but you can certainly barter and form alliances with corvids.

I've been feeding my local crows roasted peanuts for a couple of years now. Selfish fuckers refuse to murder my enemies. Won't even shit on their cars.

Don't some birds vomit to feed their young? So this bird is just preparing the meal so it's nice and ready when it gets home!

I hate it when food delivery people have witty comments & I just gulp up everything they brought me

Plot twist: the grey bird’s family is in its stomach, so it has to eat large fish to them. By extension, this also means the bird also gets no nutrients from what it eats. :-(
