what sort of mouth noise repertoire do you have?
some of my more interesting ones include a loud pop noise i can do without requiring any fingers (charming on elevators, behind people) and sucking air into my teeth, a noise that seems to irritate the living shit out of crows like nothing else i can come up with

there might be an owl or a hawk about. they'll swarm and dogfight either those. otherwise, they just form a mesh network and yell at each other about what tree they're sitting on, like the chinese in that disputed ocean. someone walking a dog will also set one off. they'll take turns, one as a lookout up in a tree as the others forage on the ground. they live for a few years in families and if you stay on it you can get them to the point where the parents are telling the children crows shut up and don't caw around here or that annoying man will come out and make mouth noises
noises that make dogs go apeshit, on the other hand -- too easy. bordering on unkind

yeah, we have a few birds of prey around sometimes. my wife once saw a common buzzard pick up a squealing mouse.
sometimes when hes coming to sit in the big pine tree, some crows or jackdaws surround him and harrass him from safe distance and warn his prey.
but mostly there are three jackdaws (silverish neck) in the lookout, of the lower trees, because there is a squirrel feeder in the next yard.
i believe, when there is no squirrel around to go after, after it picked up nuts to hide in the surrounding yards, theyre sort of idle and get talkative.
who knows what they´re talking about...
then theres the three member magpie gang, which is mostly hanging out on the roofs in a bigger distance and search for leftovers when everyone else is gone or try to hustle the squirrel to let go of any nuts. fittingly they make a lot of ratatatat noises, as if they had a tommy gun. one of my favourite sounds in the garden ^^
my all time faves are the two different gangs of finches. they do fun stuff!

i used to rather like crows. you can caw back at them and they'll actually pay you mind. seem rather confused, amusingly, at times: ...caw? then you're all CAW, yes. then they're all CAW back
but then i discovered their more bastardly site. you can find youtube videos of them literally torturing cats, along with them repeatedly using a bit of plastic soda bottle as a makeshift sled to repeatedly inner tube down a snowy roof. there are two sides to clever. that it was only in retrospect that i realized the crows were deliberately torturing me, knowing it drove me crazy that they'd land next to my window and be loud as shit at 5am. it started off as territorial and became an idle amusement of torturing me. my roommate, a sensitive gun owner, offered me to buy me a BB gun so i could shoot at them out the window. i declined, citing fears of someone calling the cops (in fact, i read a story in the news about that shit going down where i lived just a few weeks ago -- lots of bored elderly out there, even if it is quiet enough that you might think you could...)
and so no, i'll find another solution. and it was this
and moved away from there, no crow noise probs until... late 2020, moved here, and the crows are loud territorial shits again.
but i'm a master at irritating them, now, and i'll step outside and literally see them all take off and fly away, like: ehhh, shit, him again
never raised my voice, thrown shit at them, nothing. just annoying mouth noises timed to trip them up in their own riddims and they fucking hate it cannot describe how satisfying.
