I'm partial to curve billed thrashers myself. Got a crazy look in their eye and don't take shit from other birds in my area.

If you regularly feed crows or other corvids, they'll also start bringing you gifts like shiny objects. I wanted to try teaching crows to bring me money in exchange for food. It's most likely doable but just a lot of work.
I'm late to this I know, but I've got magpies in the trees near where I live. I started sharing my breakfast with them when it's nice enough to eat outside, and I've found more than a few shiny bits and bats on the stoop. Fast food foil, stuff like that.

Corvids are amazing birds.
 
My recommendations Rpetsandus YouTube channel. A Canadian couple has 3 pet crows (2 imprinted) and 2 magpies also imprinted.

PetraGrey YouTube channel. Petra an African Grey parrot talks to Alexa.

Pet Goose George YouTube channel. This wholesome channel chronicles the daily life of Crazy Bob and his pet White Chinese Goose George.

Seagull recommendations. Bird Aid Facebook page. Bird aid is a British charity taking care of disabled seagulls. They post a lot about their resident gulls.

Gregory Gull Facebook profile. Greg is a wild seagull living at Bird Aid. His Facebook covers his antics and family life.

A Herring Gull Named Marty Facebook group. Marty is a tame seagull living on Jersey Shore.

She also has a bird of prey who she uses to drive avay birds from the local airport. Also there's pet magpie without one leg, whom thay have saved.
And guys who save wild animals and return them to the wild
 
owls are cool because you can map whatever emotions you want on to them and they're also like tactical silent bird ninjas of the night

this dude I posted back here
was from a local bird rescue group
they say his backstory is he probably bounced off a car so now he's sorta fucked in the head, he's like six inches tall and moe in a derp way and I'm reposting him because he's cool

Hooded crow fledlings learning to fly here (in a park right next to a freeway). A demented pair of crows, which, according to the locals, have lived there for almost ten years and in all that time have never produced surviving offspring, are ferociously attacking people, dogs and cats. Their natural predator, of course, being motor vehicles. Two out of three have been flattened at that point, and I'll give the last one a day or two at most.

Wish I'd live in a rural area again, had a crow as a pet as a child, and it was more fun than a barrel of dead babies...
