Corvus: A Life With Birds (ISBN 9781582434773) by Esther Woolfson is a non-fiction book about a family which adopts various corvids; a rook named Chicken, a magpie named Spike, and a crow named Ziki.
Birds have varying degrees of talking ability: some, like the corvids, are able to mimic only a few words and phrases, while some budgerigars have been observed to have a vocabulary of almost 2,000 words.
The Tufted Jay (Cyanocorax dickeyi) is a species of bird in the Corvidae family.
