Pretty cool bird! I had a Crow onetime, named it Bourbon....they have 'Old Crow' bourbon, so why not name my Crow...Bourbon! It didn't speak but I know they can...it wasn't near as friendly as this Raven.This lady got me thinking I need one, but not for 3500. Also I want an English oneAlso my wife redirectected me to Beo's. That bird seems worth 3500.
