Birds might be listening to your conversations

A large black bird, called a large-billed crow, perches on the back of an empty public park bench. Other benches and greenery are visible in the background. Japanese characters are visible on a post in the backgorund.

You’ve heard of the fly on the wall, but what about the crow in the city?
