i would like to see pics of some of yalls unusual looking crows from far away or close to home, dead or alive, or even mounted. thanks
i went to mexico once & found lotsa crows flying all over by the ocean. i was at this outside buffet & they were like pigeons. lol certainly not scared of human interaction. their a little off center to the left in the pic. they were alot smaller bodied & had alot longer tail feathers. well the ones that had tail feathers. lol they looked mangey to best describe their plumage i thinks the word. lol
That is what I was thinking. They make a sound that sounds like glass cracking. There are lots of them around the border. I remember them descending on cars to eat the bugs off the grills when cars would stop at a light or in a parking lot.

Out here in Texas they hide in big numbers under the cars and in the trees at wally world. I never thought about the well done bug guts that are cooked to our cars.
Oh and they are great at mimicry. I was fishing one time and I heard what sounded exactly like a car accident... 5 minutes later I heard it again...then again... I followed the sound to a grackle sitting on top of someones house...guess he heard a good fender bender and like the way it sounded.
