My wife and I used to return to the same place in the woods and would try to attract and feed crows. Once we were packed up and preparing to leave with crows watching us as my wife distributed more peanuts while she was trying to caw like them but I then found that the crows were changing some of their caws seemingly to mimic my wife's imitation and then purely by accident I coughed and a nearby crow clearly mimicked my cough!
I love crows, they have lots of character if you take time to observe them.
One of my favorite books, have read it multiple times, in two different translations. The book definitely had a stronger impact for me as the first time I read it, right as I was at the critical point of the work, the atrocities of Tiananmen happened. I have not yet read The Iron Heel by London but that is on my short list.
