Crows

Green

Becasue a long time ago they used to carry crows on board with them so when they couldn't see the land they would send out the crow and follow it because a crow's natural instinct is to fly towards land. They would keep the crow in its cage high up on the mast and the crow would make its nest in the cage; therefore, the name crow's nest was born.

owls and snakes are not enemies but they do prey on each other.

What I have witnessed is crows gathering by the tens of thousands, which they are doing now in southern Ohio. Food ofcourse is the reason any bird migrates. It would be tough going with no road kill, baby birds, or vermin to eat so it makes sense they do.

Yes.

First of all the Hawaiian Crow isn't extinct it is just extinct in the wild. The Hawaiian Crow, Cervus has many ways it became extinct. First of all many people tore the the Hawaiian Crow's habitat the trees. Poachers also played a big role. Finally diseases wiped out some of their populations.

Yes, but they can easily become feral if their wings are not clipped!

a large gull,like the herring gull.

13-14 in. long and 10-11 tall

In my opinion yes. My aunt has recently died of a heart attack and for a week leading up to her death I noticed a lot of crows around. A group of about 15 when I was out walking was the most noticeable. I went to her house the day after she died and there were 3 on her roof. I made a point of looking on the roofs of all the other houses around but those 3 were the only crows around. I had never heard of this until my aunt had died and thought it was too much of a coincidence so looked it up on the internet. There are birds and crows around all the time, but there were so many crows it made me take notice. I've read a few posts on other sites which say that crows are scavengers and they may be looking for food, but my aunt lives 25 miles away and was fit and well until the day she died. I'm absolutely convinced the crows were a sign.

he looks just like a female but really a male crow is very dark brown whereas a female crow is completely black

so you just have to look closely but don't get to near because when crows feel they are in danger they do tend to peck

also they will try to save their little babies

Instinct. They still carry the genes of temptation from their wild ancestors. Birds, small animals such as mice, rats and insects are often eaten by cats that have access to outside.

It actually varies with the individual species of birds, you'll need to be more specific as to which type you are wanting to know about.

A murder of crows.

Crows lay eggs just like any other bird. They lay it in a nest and when its time the eggs will crack and hatchlings will come out.

yes if they catch one

the crow can protect itself fron predators by summining death to take their souls

Yes, along with other grains like oat and barley.

Then the hen is probably a rooster. He may simply be a young rooster though, that still looks hen-ish. The chance that you have a crowing hen is not very high.

No, silkie HENS won't crow loud enough to disturb the neighbours but the male, the cockerel, certainly will. one of my silkies seems to think 4.20am is a fine time to wake me, good job I don't have any neighbours.

Roosters crow for many reasons but most often to let his hens know where he is and where they should go for safety. They can crow for territorial reasons letting the other roosters know he is the boss and challenging the others. Sort of like this is my territory if you want it come challenge me for it. When a hen is ready to lay an egg she will cackle, instead of crow, to announce to the rooster that she wants to go to her nest. The rooster will began to cackle signaling to the hen that he is watching out for her safety so that she may proceed to the nest. When she is ready to leave the nest she will cackle to the rooster. If it is safe for her to leave the nest he will begin to cackle until she is back to safety.

Definitely yes, especially when they have babies in their nests and are trying to feed them, we lost 2 full size hens this week alone

No. Apart from the fact it's dead, it's vocal cords would have been cut.

crows migrate in winter and summer

Yes, the Carrion Crow (Corvus corone) is an omnivore. It eats carrion (dead flesh), young birds, mammals, eggs, insects, worms, grain, fruit and seeds.
