I find it ludicrous and insulting that you would publish a picture in your “green” section of a crow allegedly “eating” plastic bags. Crows, ravens and other corvids are among the smartest of wild birds, and do not eat plastic bags. They do, however, collect up plastic and a lot of other materials for their nests, which I am willing to bet is what the bird in the picture is doing. He does not have a small piece in his mouth, a “mouthful” as it were, but a rather large amount too big to swallow, but not too big to line its nest. Not all of us will swallow (pun intended) the caption below the picture.
