Yes I vaguelyly remember the programme. Eventually the birds worked out that the cat on wheels wasn't a threat and ignored it. Much the same as the crows in my garden ignore me when there is food on the birdtable.
Did you know that long ago the British Navy used crows as direction finders. A number of them were kept in cages and when one was released, from the 'crows nest' it would always fly towards the nearest land. Never heard of any tests being done recently to check out the story but it is supposed to be true. Hence the saying 'as the crow flies'. |
