When Ravens fly over they

Very interesting article. I remember my husband bringing a baby home that fell from a nest. We raised it until it was able to fly free. Funny it never left. Became very friendly & would let us know it wanted to be fed everyday by stopping by our bedroom window waking us up. That bird would follow me all around my yard as I worked in the garden. One day, sadly our lab, who was just wanting to play ended it's life.......they are truly amazing birds!!!
Crows/Ravens
I saw a documentary on crows and it was said that they are as smart as a 2 year old child. Are ravens as smart as crows?
