I live right near a huge park and we've got fat ravens and crows all over the neighborhood.  My son and I have seen them catching rats and scarfing down on our neighbors' roofs.  I love their obnoxious cackles. If I could have a talking raven, I would. Fuck a parrot.  This is a Shakespeare allusion, no? talking ravens? I remember that from somewhere.
