About 6 - 7 years ago I was walking east on Spring Street approaching the library in downtown Seattle when I noticed 3 young crows wandering in the right hand lane. They looked to be in danger of being run over, so I thought I'd try to 'shoo' them out of the street onto the sidewalk, or maybe to fly 'away'. However, when I approached them, I was bonked on the head, twice, but an adult crow, presumably their mother. That was enough for me and I left the birds alone. I did not wait around to see what happened next. Perhaps I should have made eye contact?
