>One day a lot of crows swarmed her
I want to try this when the school year starts. It sounds so funny and I'd feel so badass when a bunch of crows swarm me on my way to school. Also I love animals. I've done some research that says they like peanuts. Are there any other things I should know?

Song birds make for better friends,crows scare off other small birds. Try staring at them that's really all it takes. Anytime you see them just make them notice you watching them but mean no harm. Worked for me, not with crows though.

You should know that crows are bros

I worked as a night janitor for a movie theater, and frequently, I'd get finished around dawn when the crows were out. I'd usually throw a bunch of popcorn out for them on my way to the trash. After a while, they'd caw at me and I'd say hello back and they would caw back. It was kind of cool. Never got swarmed though. Corvids are very smart, though. Keep that in mind. It's more likely that they were using me for free food than getting personal.

Hmmm

They're entirely capable of getting close, but just because they're using you for food doesn't mean they are close or have any desire to be close. There are plenty of examples of crows getting close to people, usually by bringing them gifts.

Are you serious? If a crow brought me a gift I'd be delighted. What sort of gifts??
Not OP btw, but all this crow talk is titillating me

Shiny objects they find

Oh, I would be, too. I love crows. I'm just saying that feeding crows doesn't mean they're bonding with you.
As for what they bring, mostly what >>18681084 said. Corvids love hording shiny shit, so if they find something they think is a cool gift, they'll bring it to someone they like, which is sometimes a human. Things like bottle caps, can tabs, ribbon, or maybe a coin or some glass can all be gifts. It all depends on what they find. Pic related is from a story about a girl who gets gifts from crows she feeds every day.
