If you hunt crows, odds are that you have seen or shot a bird with crap on its back. They roost together in trees. I guess it is the price they pay for safety.
These birds, however, are particularly "crappy."
Enjoy my crappy photos.
These birds slept like crap.
Sorry about the crappy subject matter.
These crows had a bad end to their crappy morning.
There is no way to prove it, but I believe its a seniority things with crows on the roost. If you will notice there are always several hundred birds that stage early and get to the roost early. I believe these birds arrive early to guarantee a prime spot on the roost. Ive watched it time and again. I cant tell if it is the same birds on a daily bases, but I think it is. Most of the young birds are covered in dung. That makes me believe more in the seniority theory..
I'd play it down as well if you don't want competition in your area. 700 that's a good one!
I'm supposed to get my two e-callers back from FoxPro today. I might as well test them out on some live birds to make sure they are set for next season. I have not hunted crows in March in over 20 years, at least the weather will be very pleasant.
So are you done for the season or are you still at it?

BH does have "competition." However, as we're both GentlemenCrowbusters, we have an agreed-upon border between us (unless a bandit happens to cross the border, my way...heh, heh ). No, really, I was on another mission through BH's turf yesterday and saw 50-60 sitting in a field in his kill-zone and sent him a "Free Scouting Report."
Our season, Part One is FEB & MAR. Part Two is AUG - SEP. We just got dumped on with snow again so that screws up access to hunting areas. It's supposed to melt in a day or two, so then there's hope.
