For over a year now the people who live along Knight Road, Huron, and Storey Ave and the people who live around the Coqualeetza field have been trying to scare the crows that gather only 3 months of the year. They do it year-round though and have scared off all the other birds we use […]

For years it was assumed that the avian brain was limited in function because it lacked a neocortex. In mammals, the neocortex is the hulking, evolutionarily modern outer layer of the brain that allows for complex cognition and creativity and that makes up most of what, in vertebrates as a whole, is called the pallium. The new findings show that birds’ do, in […]
