Not 3 crows? Not 5 crows? What method did you use to determine the number of crows?

Is there reason to believe maybe this year will be better than the last?
 
I step away from this thread for the day. What the hell happened?

Dude you must be bored as hell.
Seriously that’s just creepy….
 
Somebody requested a vulture discussion....

If there is ever such a thing as least favorite bird. Crows are mine.
If you start feeding them at a regular time each day they’ll befriend you and start bringing you shiny trinkets. They can be trained fairly easily since they’re amazingly smart birds.

I remember around 2000 large swarms of crows invaded the area around UIHC and Carver. Sky darkening numbers would come in every evening and roost in the areas around Finkbine and the woods by Carver. They became such a problem that they (maintenance or DNR?) killed a mess of them and hung their carcasses upside down in the trees along Hawkins Dr. It was like Crassus lining the Appian Way with rebels.
 
I am glad they are back. Numbers were way down due to West Nile Virus.

Blackbirds or perhaps Starlings, not Crows.
