Birds envy humans.
So I boiled up some halves of cobbed corn, and went outside to eat them - cuz corn gets everywhere the way I eat them. As little bits of corn inevitably fall to the ground, magpies gather in the trees and on the sidewalk. As they approach and looking closer into their eyes, I see - Envy? If they could talk would they be saying "Look at that boi eat! Bastards gotta be nearly 180 pounds." As I leave, they quickly scoop up the half munched corn bits on the ground.
The great quote that "man envies birds in flight", may be true. But I have no doubt that birds also envy humans, if not more so. Yup.

Corvids, like magpies and crows, have been shown to have relatively sophisticated processing ability. They can both use tools and practice deception.
I personally put thier intelligence about on par with the average beyond.ca member.
If they had thumbs we'd be fucked.
