Magnificent. I am duty-bound to point out that in addition to performing the corvid mourning ritual when they learn one of their brethren has fallen, California Scrub Jays are capable of tracking many more food caches than crows or ravens and will keep track of who—avian or simian—was watching them when they stashed their cache. There's also evidence that they remember *how long* they've stored perishable food. Impeccable.
