Meet Russell! A heartwarming story of a crow eagerly anticipating the arrival of its beloved friend after a long day at school.
Prepare to be amazed as you witness the heartwarming bond between a Danish family and a wild Eurasian crow, beautifully captured in a video compilation.
The crow pays visits to all of them, including the dog and the cats, but it is for the little boy Otto that Russell reserves the majority of his love. Their friendship is truly unique and unlike anything you have ever witnessed.
Russell is a free-spirited corvid, soaring through the sky with grace and independence. He frequently vanishes from the family’s estate in Denmark. No matter the time of day, the bird always seems to be close by, whether it’s tapping on the door, swooping in through the window to perch on the couch, or patiently waiting for Otto on the rooftop when he returns from Kindergarten.
Rescued as a young bird, Otto’s parents struggled to find someone nearby who could help rehabilitate him. However, the family took on the responsibility of nursing him back to health and guiding him through the process of learning to fly. Over time, a strong bond formed between Otto and the family.
He has been a member of the family for quite some time now, and has played a role in welcoming the couple’s second child, Hedwig, into the world. However, he has a tendency to frequently attempt to take the baby’s pacifier.
Watch the conversation with Russell’s family about his unconventional method of entering the house through the window to enjoy some quality TV time with her son.
