“The Fascinating Intelligence of Birds”

Despite expressions such as “bird-brain”, birds are very intelligent creatures. To demonstrate this, Auguste von Bayern brings Dohli, a jackdaw who is very close to her, on stage to be the first corvid ever to appear in a TEDx talk. She goes on to explain how certain bird species can innovate, reason, and even make novel tools to accomplish their goals–all with Dohli watching first from her shoulder and then from the back of the auditorium.
