Crows roost together on lines for several reasons, primarily related to safety and social interaction. Roosting in groups helps them avoid predators, as there is safety in numbers. Additionally, it allows for social bonding and communication among the birds, which can strengthen their social structure and provide opportunities for information sharing, such as locating food sources. The lines themselves provide a convenient and elevated perch for resting.

A murder of crows is a group of three or more of them. It is believed that they got this distinction because a group of crows would gather together to determine the fate of another crow in their group. Many times this led to the murder of the said cow.
Crows survive winter by employing various strategies, including foraging for food and caching it for later use. They often scavenge from human sources, such as garbage and bird feeders, and can adapt their diets to include a wider range of available foods. Additionally, crows are social birds and often roost in large groups, which helps them conserve warmth and provides safety from predators. Their intelligence also allows them to find creative solutions to challenges posed by the cold weather.
