What is the name of crow like bird smaller than crow?

Are they really crows or perhaps grackles? Grackles have been incorrectly called crows in Tx. for as long as I can remember. I have witnessed a group of grackles chasing a hawk away from their nesting site on multiple occasions. The adult birds are quite ferocious when protecting their young. I have also seen the same kind of behavior in mockingbirds, although the hawk is usually pursued by just the male. About two weeks ago in San Marcos TX, I noticed a rather large flock of grackles (not unusual in itself) flying by. The lead birds were diving and flying erratically when I noticed a Coopers hawk flying low and at the head of the flock, with a young grackle in its claws. What amazed me was the sheer number of birds responding to the threat. Crows frequently mob hawks. They are merely to drive the predator away from their territory. In fact, it is very common to see this behavior in crows, more so than any other bird.
Yes. The two terms are not opposite of each other. A scavenger is an organism who eats leftovers from another animal's kill, or eats an animal that has died of some other causes. An omnivore is an organism that eats both plant and animal matter. Crows will basically eat whatever they find that looks tasty ...

The raven, of which the Bible speaks often, is in the family Corvidae (crows), probably from where crows generated. In dietary laws of the Old Testament, Israel was forbidden to eat "every raven after his kind," amongst other forbidden animals (Leviticus 11:15). The Lord sent ravens to feed Elijah, when he was in the wilderness: "The ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the evening." 1 Kings 17:6. Noah had "sent forth a raven, which went forth to and fro, until the waters were dried up from off the earth." Genesis 8:7.
According to Psalm 147:9, the Lord "giveth to the beast his food, and to the young ravens which cry." Jesus used the ravens as an illustration of God's care for us in Luke 12:24: "Consider the ravens: for they neither sow nor reap; which neither have storehouse nor barn; and God feedeth them: how much more are ye better than the fowls?" On another occasion, He similarly used sparrows to illustrate this truth.

What is the Significance of black crow landing on top of a car?
The common crow is found throughout the U.S., and they can land just about anywhere for just about any reason that fits the bird's agenda. Nothing more. If the question is designed to elicit a spiritual or metaphysical evaluation of the crow's choice of an auto for a landing zone, then the question might be asked differently. I have read that to cross paths with a black crow is a good love omen.
