Clever Corvids

Corvids, such as Crows, Rooks and Jackdaws are known for their high intelligence, problem solving abilities and complex social behaviour. But they’re also often associated with folklore, scary stories and horror movies.  Join us as we delve into the lives of the Clever Corvids, uncover the reasons behind their menacing image and find out that there’s more to these super brainy birds than a reputation for being frightening.  Production Hosts: Rosie Holdsworth and Ajay Tagala Producer: Katy Kelly Sound design: Jesus Gomez Contributors: Professor Nicky Clayton and Dr. Jo Wimpenny Follow us on Instagram @wildtalesnt Watch a video of this podcast on the National Trust’s YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@nationaltrustcharity/podcasts  If you'd like to get in touch with feedback, or have a story connected with the National Trust, you can contact us at [email protected]
