To scare crows away is not that easy as it was once.

You just had to post a picture with a damned crow in it, didn't you?

With regards to the picture, I have to say that it is a typical action from a dastardly, evil crow.

I find their behaviour to be quite shitty at times.

It wasn?t easy to find an acceptable one.
I find birds, and especially songbirds and pigeons, annoying too. But I respect several members of the crow family, because of their intelligence.

I might have respected them had they not shit on every square inch of ground at work and stunk it to high heaven. Having about 300000 crows milling about at one location tends to do that.

Sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you don't.

How do you feed them, to allow such a huge population?
Maybe you should guard the food supplies from the crows.

During the non-winter months, the crows migrate to different parts of North America and the main flock shrinks immensely. Unfortunately, during the winter, they all join up into one huge flock and descend like locusts upon our city.

They feed on garbage and feast on whatever they can get in the fields. They roosted at the plant because it was nice and quiet, which was quite unfortunate as well.

ETA: Great pictures, by the way!

All this crow talk made me think of "The Birds." And then I remembered this scene from Mel Brooks "High Anxiety"!

Is there nothing your city or state do against these beautiful landfills or the gaping wide open waste containers, or where else the garbage is stored?
I guess the fields give not too much in the winter time.
