I want to feed him high quality food
There are a number of people in the area that feed the local crows a variety of different foods—cat treats, peanuts, and whatever people toss from the local restaurants.
I think my old crow may have passed away as I haven't seen him in years. He used to come right up to me and make clicking sounds. The neighbors don't seem to care about hungry crows but I gave him parrot food pellets and whatever human food that isn't toxic to birds. I was hoping it would be like those YouTube videos where people feed the bird and later it brings the family, but he only ever came alone.
I have a few families that visit me around my home and some at work. There's a distinct family that's easy to recognize because one of them has a wounded wing but still manages to fly. They just recently had a fledgling that left the nest because it's flying around with them squawking for food all the time these days.
