Crows Know Who You Are
By Virginia Prescott on Thursday, September 18, 2008.
The crow has long been the subject of myth, imagination, and, in the case of Alfred Hitchcock’s classic "The Birds," bad press.
He had a hunch that crows could recognize, and evade, individual researchers out to re-trap them. Dr. Marzluff, with the help of a flock of students and volunteers, tested his hypothesis on the University of Washington campus and around seattle - in quite an unusual fashion. We found his story in The New York Times, and then found him. Dr. John Marzluff joins us on the line from Seattle to discuss his first formal study of human face recognition in wild birds.
