Gabi Mann may be young, but she already has a lot of friends!
The 8-year-old girl from Seattle started feeding crows accidentally when she was a toddler because she was prone to dropping food on the ground, reported BBC. As she grew older, Gabi became an animal lover and started purposely feeding them yummy treats including peanuts, dog food and general leftovers.
The crows were so thankful for Gabi's generosity that they actually started bringing her gifts!
Gabi talks about the interesting gifts brought to her by the crows in a sweet podcast.
Gabi's gifts from the crows varied from single earrings, to a paper clip, some nuts and bolts, LEGO pieces, and even a small light bulb.
The crows are clearly happy to have her as a friend - they even gave her one piece of metal that said "best" on it!
Although this isn't a story you hear every day, bird experts aren't surprised.
"If you want to form a bond with a crow, be consistent in rewarding them," advises John Marzluff, professor of wildlife science at the University of Washington.
He added that Gabi and the crows have established a two-way connection, which is why the birds are rewarding her with gifts when she gives them food.
But don't be too enticed to make crow friends by Gabi's story - Marzluff said not all crows give gifts, while some of them will even bring humans courtship gifts (dead animal bodies).
