Foreign bird site Internet spreads rapidly, and site about a lot of birds exists there currently. Most of site of a Japanese bird are love bird pride. For it, site of a foreign bird is an exhibition of breeding and breeding information and a place of information exchange. In addition, it is impressive that an establishment person and the visitor demand information about bird by sincere posture. I recommend that foreign site is visited in addition to Japanese site if there is it in environment to connect with Internet. It can be got the hint that you do not seem to hit on from a viewpoint of a Japanese. Crows.net (http://www.crows.net/) Site of a crow by Mr.Michael J. Westerfield of an American Popularity of a crow is high with unexpectedness by intellectual height. Japanese bird keepers often talks about a crow. I who read "Kingsolomon's Ring" of Konrad Lorenz at the time of a child longed for him, and wanted to try to keep a crow. Will not there be many people who thought in the same state? Charm of a crow attracts us and sends you with a mysterious thing. This site is "Kingsolomon's Ring" of Mr.Michael J. Westerfield studying a language and intelligence of a crow. He introduce the language every kind of some crows in contents of a language. It is not a thing of subjectivity and compares a cry with a method called Sonograms and studies it. We can hear a cry in a WAV form, too. Actually, because We can read it scientifically, and push it forward while hearing a good cry of sound quality, it is easy to understand it to the person whom there is not to a wild bird in detail. We are interesting even if we try to hear even a sound even if We cannot understand described English. My personal impression was "A cry of a crow of overseas and a Japanese crow does not change very much". It may be what is different from Japanese it at all if I let I do not hear a cry of many crows with care usually and spread it. However, I who did not understand it felt a sense of closeness. As for the culture of a crow, it was reported a crow of many parts of the world as Crow Logs. There are Europe, Africa, Asia, an of course Japanese thing more than 20 them more only in America, too. They are considerable quantity, but are very interesting that I try to read it. There were a very heartwarming episode and the thing which seemed to be a novel of just like mystery inside. Harmful bird is famous speaking of a crow in Japan. Of course a report of such damage exists in the other area, too. The report of a Japanese crow was a thing as a harmful bird whether the reason was because there was a little information itself that was conveyed. They was different from the Japanese news that we saw smartly. Actually, that I read these reports as a person living in the pertinence area is studied very much.

July, 2002 issue

A report of a crow of Tokyo is introduced as the one. It is obliged to our throwing away trash with a semitransparent vinyl bag in Tokyo. It is for the purpose to let discretion collection be thorough by can see the contents of a trash bag. The inside came to look like a crow by the result that a trash bag became semitransparent. It was contents to become the viking restaurant where there was that visual selected a diet for a crow in the current trash collection ground. Really right. The efficiency was good, and the crow gets possible to look for food. It is the thing that is extremely natural if I try to think a little. However, because their viewpoint is different, I am fresh and feel it. I realized importance of trying to change a viewpoint simultaneously again. Distribution of a crow every season is described in detail. The place where a crow gathered surely existed in the place where I grew up into that I thought and tried to return it. I called it "a forest of a crow" at the time of a child. I thought so that there was a crow now in the place through one year. However, I read this site this time and considered it to have possibilities to have been a mere belief when it lent it. They seem to change ROOSTS every season. A crow as a harmful bird becomes a premise most even if I search a crow in Japanese site. Therefore there are many cases to be incomprehensible whether a crow catches what kind of action, a habit. It is a good opportunity changing recognition of conventional oneself that it is reported explanation as a bird with a crow purely like this site. And I was able to seem to understand a bird class of crow a little again and become glad. There is an image of the crow which he add a chicken egg, and is going to fly away in contents of a diet. Even that is surprised by ability of a crow. I knew that an eye of a young bird of a crow was blue with contents about the conservation of a crow for the first time. In addition, there are contents such as a book introduction about a crow, references. I understand that it is splendid contents as an investigation report or an article at the same time that I read it interestingly, and it is pushed forward. One email just arrived from Mr.Michael that I sat at a personal computer so that I wrote this sentence. It was written as an answer to what I asked before about this crows.net project there. He learned it as a zoologist and studied a crow for 15 years. He receives a request of government and does investigation, a study. He told me that he protected many crows for 15 years, but had not bred the only once as "a pet" either. Love for his crow is handed down from an email. Dr.Lorenz recognizes dignity of the life as a kind once and seems to have lived with crow and lives in him and the same state. I that I access his site, and there are only the exchanges of several emails imagine it on earth what kind of person real he is.Mr.Michael is Dr.Lorenz of the present age for me.
