Crows In Winter


1/15/09

So, something new this winter is a flock of Crows. This is a picture of them eating salt off the road. It seems this winter we are blessed , or not with a flock of crows. In the evening there are so many that come to roost and to eat corn from the field across the street that was not harvested this year. Crows live in big family groups. The young may not actually leave the parents for several years and will actually help raise each new brood of off spring. They make a lot of noise but the crows are also very interesting to watch. for more information follow the link below.

Off to do some teaching in Yoda's class. after school meeting and Drama performance tonight.
