You might expect a loyal pet dog to fetch you something. You might even be able to train it to go get your slippers. Gabi Mann has a different kind of animal that brings her things.
It is not by chance that Gabi is receiving the gifts.
For four years, 8-year-old Gabi has been feeding crows in the yard of her Seattle home.
It has become such a routine that they wait around the yard when it is time for lunch.
It looks like the crows feel the need to give back. They have been dropping off their own gifts for years. Gabi has collected most of the things they have left at her feet.
She has toys, beads, and even a heart shaped pearl. The crows were nice enough to find Gabi's mother, Lisa, a camera lens that she had misplaced.
It is a two way relationship where everybody gets what they want.
It is not just by chance that this is happening. The birds know full well that they are forging a bond with Gabi.
They are not dropping these toys at Gabi's neighbors. They are smart enough to know Gabi is the girl to go to.
She even looks at the crows as friends and family And why not?
She serves them lunch, and they buy her gifts.
It is a lot better than some human relationships.
