I've managed to make a few crow friends over the past two months (family of two adult crows and a very skwawky juvenile, ha). They visit two times a day for cashews, almonds, and sometimes a little bit of meat. We chat and hang out on the balcony, and I even get some bows and bobs from afar. It been very fun and sweet (though my neighbors have not enjoyed the juvenile's demands at mealtimes ;)). All this to say, I'll be leaving for a few months but I hate to just up and disappear on them. Will they remember me when I'm back? Will they be mad that I left? Should I be weaning them down to only one snack time a day? I don't want crow enemies, but also they just give me blank stares when I explain I'm about to leave for a while. ;) Any advice?

My doggo is at the emergency vet right now, showing signs of mushroom poisoning. Apparently "false parasol" mushrooms (aka Chlorophyllum molybdites are common in our area after several rainy days). It's called The Vomiter, so... yeah. Check those lawns, protect yer dogs. Pic ID is confirmed via vet.
