Teaser Tuesdays

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
Grab your current read
Open to a random page
Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

Gifts of the Crow: How Perception, Emotion, and Thought Allow Smart Birds to Behave Like Humans
From Gifts of the Crow by John Marzluff and Tony Angell


"Betty, a New Caledonian crow, peers briefly into a tall, clear, vertical tube at the small basket of food inside it and pecks quickly at the plastic to test if she can break through it. Her brain is lit with electrical and chemical energy as she contemplates the puzzle of reaching the treats."
