We've been told over and over again how smart crows are, but they still astonish us now and then. Logically, we know that flying should be more thrilling than anything humans can do, but we all know in our hearts how much fun it is to slide down a snowy hill. This crow has commandeered a piece of trash to act as a sled! Or, more accurately, a snowboard since he stands up on it. Give them a little time, and the entire flock will organize their own X games to compete with each other. (via Nag on the Lake)

I've seen other videos of crows sledding, here is one from 10 years ago - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9mrTdYhOHg
While I have not witnessed this myself I have watched them "surf" a wind flowing up a roof slope. They would go to the top then open their wings and slide down on the upflow, over and over again.
