There's some crows (Or other corvid birds, I'm not a birdologist) that like to hang out in my backyard tree.

I try to make friends, I bring them bread out there whenever I see them but they never come down to take it. Ive tried holding it out stretched and leaving it on the outdoor table and retreating inside, but they never seem to want to take it :(

Buy some birdseed and fruit, they might not know the bread is food.

The Real Bread Campaign would suggest most bread isn't anymore.

They are meat eaters. Don't sit your groceries in the back of your truck with hotdogs in it and stop at a gas station. You won't have any hotdogs left.

Yeah, I agree with the other person who replied. Try some fruit.

I've never had any luck with corvids. I've even gone so far as to run into the grocery store to buy fruit for them when I saw some crows hanging around the parking lot, but they were gone by the time I came out.
