I have been feeding a group of crows near my house and we’re just getting to the point where they wait for me now in a morning and come very close. My sister has decided she wants in on it but I’ve told her to go and find her own murder as I’ve put in all the hard work with these ones. I told her there is a murder across the way on the field she could do and feed.

this morning I was coming home from shop and there she was feeding Russel from my murder. I shouted at her and she shouted that they’re not my fucking crows, at the point a woman walking a dog walked past and tutted so sister shouted that they’re not my crows and I was shouting at her. The woman just carried on walking but this was right near my house!!

AIBU to think she should just go and feed the others???

Are you worried that Russel will prefer your sister over you? I'd be more annoyed at Russel, zero loyalty from crows these days.

No im sick of her waiting for me to start something and then swooping in to take over.

Could you create a murder of crows on an AI bot so she has the opportunity to engage in the activities while glancing up at the window and seeing your murder for a more immersive effect

You don't own wild animals. And by the way, shouting at one another is really not good for the peace of wild animals. And you can't spell Russell properly.

I love this! I also feed my local crows - they are mine now. I hoping that they will bring me shiny things in exchange for peanuts.
YANBU.

OMG you and your sister again!

You need some distance from each other.

Sounds like you have worse issues than just her stealing Russel

WTF?😆

This is ridiculous. They aren't 'your' crows and they have no loyalty to you. Do you live together?
