Title: migration Post by: rushhen06 on 15-Oct-09, 02:37:48 PM Driving into work this morning around 7:30AM, I saw a very large flock of crows flying quite
high and heading South. Do they migrate? Title: Re: migration Post by: Helen in MD on 15-Oct-09, 03:31:03 PM I don't think they migrate like geese but... when not in breeding mode they roost in large numbers overnight and then spread out during the day to feed. You will see them returning to the roost in the evening. Hopefully they are roosting in woods and not in a residential neighborhood. :mini-bird: :mini-bird: :mini-bird:

Did they say downtown where Shaky....isn't the nest downtown? If A & B are still around, wouldn't they at least make an appearance to the nest?
