 ===== Pepper and Chili =====
-{{ :2015-11-29_12-10.jpeg?150|}}Carrion crow Pepper came to us as a nestling in May 2014, together with his brother Chili after they have been found in a church yard after their nest came down following a severe storm. Both were cold and lethargic due to dehydration. Both suffered a concussion, but no fractures or other internal injuries. Only Pepper had a subluxation tendency of both of his metatarsophalangeal joints, which we subsequently had to splint. Both birds had a mildly deficient plumage, which we corrected via diet and supplements, and which changed into a prestine plumage one year later after their first complete moult.

 {{ :2016-04-01_20-27.jpeg?150|}}In early autumn of 2015 we opened the soft release aviary doors for a small crow release group, Pepper and Chili included. As expected, it took about 3 days for all birds to leave eventually the release aviary. Chili and Pepper left on different days, whereas Pepper was the last bird to leave. All birds joint the wild flock of non-breeding birds nearby, but came back occasionally for treats.
