Discover how a wild Eurasian crow joined a Danish family’s flock in this entertaining video collection. Grab a screwdriver and get ready to screw your mouth back on.

Russell reserves the most of his love for Otto, the little child, but the crow will visit all of them, including the dogs and cats. Their bond is unlike anything you’ve ever seen.

Russell is not a bird in a cage. He frequently vanishes from the Danish property owned by the family.

But the bird is always there, whether it’s pecking at the door, flying through the window onto the couch, or perched atop the house, waiting for Otto to return from kindergarten.

After Otto was saved as a youngster and his parents were unable to locate anyone in the region to help him recover,

the crow began to trust them as they nursed him back to health and in the days leading up to his departure.

He has been with the family for some time and helped welcome Hedwig, the couple’s second child, into the world, despite the fact that he steals the baby’s pacifier far too frequently.
