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?

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

There has been a migration of "Old Crows" to Florida every winter for decades.  Cheesy

Speaking of migration-has anyone seen A/B lately?  No postings about sightings in a few days.

Dan and Brian saw falcon activity Saturday over downtown Rochester. (Neither one has Internet access.) I heard about it third hand and don't have details.

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?
