bird brain?

Ok, was watching TV while working... and I just learned the most useless, albeit interesting, trivia. Crows drop nuts on the street to have cars run over them and crack them open. Now, if that isn't smart enough, the more interesting fact is that they only wait by crosswalks (they perch on powerlines) then wait for the crosswalks to turn green before hopping down from the powerlines to get the cracked nuts!

(Ok, enough Discovery Channel..)
