Video shows amazing moment taxi driver’s ‘pet crow’ flies alongside the cab taking food from a passenger’s hand
The amazing moment a crow flew alongside a moving taxi, taking food from a passenger, has been captured on video.
TikTok user Abbie Cashman (@abbiecashman7), who works in Cork Airport, shared the incredible clip on the platform.
At the beginning of the video, words on the screen say that she has had the ‘worst day ever’, and that she hadn’t been able to get a cab until this driver had finally picked her up.
Once she got into the car, Abbie’s day changed for the better, as she was able to enjoy an unusual interaction with the animal.
In the video, the bird can be seen flapping alongside the car, prompting the driver to tell Abbie that the animal is ‘[my crow]’.
The bird flies up to the taxi window, taking the small piece of biscuit out of the woman’s hand, before flying away
He asks Abbie if she wants to feed the crow, she says she does, and so he instructs her to open her window.
As she does so, the driver shows her how to tightly hold on to a piece of biscuit, so that she can give it to the bird.
Holding the biscuit out, the crows swoops by and takes the snack in his beak, before swooping away to eat it.
But it’s not long before he’s back, and Abbie feeds him another piece of digestive biscuit, and she and the driver laugh.
Viewers flocked to the comments section to share their thoughts on the video.
One spoke about crows’ impressive cognitive abilities, writing: ‘crows are intellectual animals and can recognise faces, they can also tell other crows about you and you can also train crows to bring you shiny items.’
Meanwhile, numerous others complimented the taxi driver, saying they wished they could ride in his cab.
One said: ‘where is this man i need him to improve my day immediately.’
According to the taxi driver, the crow is somewhat of a companion animal, and it appears the bird regularly shows up looking for a snack
