Here is another case of birds being tortured by humans in the name of tech. A research team at the University of Oxford is trying to get a better idea of how crows behave in the wild. And what better way to accomplish this than to attach cameras near its ass.
The ass camera already discovered that crows use tools, such as sticks and leaves, more than was previously thought. Crows were even seen toting their favorite tools around with them from tree to tree. — Andrew Dobrow

This bird is not a crow, the color on its wings identifies it as a male red-winged Blackbird. The red-winged Blackbird will often attack any crow that flies anywhere near its nest, it attacks the crow from below and behind so that t he crow cannot see it until it is too late.
