Crows are highly intelligent and are even thought to be on the same IQ level as primates, some of their problem solving abilities is just astonishing.

But I agree they are not liked, strange how we never seem to care greatly for any wild animals that are adaptable and successful - we only seem to get to like creatures when they become few and far between.
