I love crows they are smart, cantankerous, ornery, and noisy. I love watching them fly in large groups following the Rio Grande that we call the crow highway. Thanks, Lavinia.
The local crows here in Nottingham, have a murder every now and then in the treetops in the copse. I got some photos of them one day – but since then, every single time I’ve spotted them amassed, by the time I’ve got the camera and struggled to get the balcony windows open, the murder had ended, and off they have flown!
I’m sure the odd ones fly past my windows to mock me! Hahaha!
They were a mean murder of crows, killing your photo opp like that. Crows mock us no matter what. I think they are related to Mocking Birds. Thanks, Inchcock.
Great photo, Timothy. You captured the essence of crows–always up to something, and distinctive silhouettes. I love crows and this is a great scene you shared.
O/T: It seems WP deleted you from the follow list. I also noticed they started to delete your comments too. Crickets from WP. Sounds like erasure to me. Likely you’ll need to refollow.
I know WP is notorious for deleting followers in droves after reaching a certain number. They must have some sort of algorithm. Either that or they don’t like the both of us so they can play their little mind games.
Thanks, Tim, for the refollow.
I would have eventually noticed I wasn’t getting your posts. I know I get talked off other people’s blogs, but I usually remain following them. But I there are times when people disappear and when I check, I’m not following them anymore. And then sometime people all of a sudden reappear after they haven’t blogged in a few years.
A brilliant collection of crows, TIm. Every night, I watch for the crows to pass my window on their way to their roost in Burnaby. The crows come from all over the city – approximately 6,000 – to find their way home. It is a heartening sight to see hundreds fly past by window.
oh the crows of the day and their noise drive me cra cra but I love looking at them in the night .. I bet they’re quiet then. If not, I’m only seeing them in the pic. hahaha. nice shot!💖.
I love the photographs of the crows, you are right they are very different birds. When we lived outside of Seattle their was the sweetest school girl who would get chased and tormented by this crow. I never saw him peck her but he scared me a few times. I think that was his territory. Great shot. xoxoxxo
Yea I always watched her, it never pecked her but it chased her every morning until she was out of the gate. I have never hurt a bird I love watching all animals especially your owls and that dancing beaver of yours. Talk about funny. Love you guys. ❤️🤗
Whenever I see crows, which is often, I always wonder if they inhabit all geographies, as I seem to see them everywhere….
Hi Jeff. There are 30 types of Crows and 11 types of Ravens and they are found all over the world. You will see crows pretty much everywhere you go.
Bird nerd! 🤓
I’m pretty fly for and old guy. Thanks, Michele.
😂
Wow. Makes perfect sense as it matches my experience. Thanks, Tim.
I like crows. Birds seem to love street and parking lot lights. They must make good roosts.

Yes, yes, yes, very noisy. The sounds they make are not rhythmic; l find it irritating but in all they are very interesting.
Thanks, Eunice. I love to listen to their cacophony of cawing.
An ominous murder by dawn’s light fitting for the upcoming holiday weekend.
It was only a miner murder, but they looked like killer crows getting ready for Holloween, indeed. Thanks, Brian.
Very early and is that on top of the lights a crow? Beautifully captured, my friend!
They are minor murder of cool looking killer crows. Thanks, Marina.
Cool looking indeed!
Well, as you probably know, the early bird catches the last chocolate cookie…
It certainly does. I couldn’t tell if the road kill cookie the one crow had was chocolate or not. But he got it. Thanks, Herman.
And quite at home too!
They were just passing through picking up road kill cookies for breakfast along the way. Thanks, Shey.
For them it will beat going to Dennys.

Hehe, I’ve got to agree again, Tim!

A minor murder in the morning. I love crows and all their noise and orneriness. Thanks, Jet.
I share your love for crows, Timothy. They always entertain me with their antics.
Dear Timothy,
what a great picture. We love the graphic of the archtecture and the light.
Keep well

They’re everywhere. 🙂

Hmm. I guess you are right. WP is weird. I refollowed.

6,000 crows what fun. They are fun in whatever number. Thanks, Rebecca.

I love listening to them. Thanks, Cindy.
oh well that’s awesome that you do.. mine come when I doing a massage. 💖
Quite creepy, aren’t they?
I don’t think they are creepy. But you and Hitchcock definitely see that side of them. Your way of seeing makes for great stories. Thanks, Roberta.
Hi Timothy, maybe I’ve just read to many fantasy books with raven’s in the starring creepy role. Hitchcock certainly was talented at creating creepy.
Ravens certainly make great creepy characters. They are really smart birds, and very ornery.
I am a big bird fan, Timothy. Actually, I like most creatures including spiders.
I never had a doubt about you love of animals. I just found it interesting you saw the creepy side of the crows. I love spiders.
Seen for the 1st time, somebody capturing crows in his camera. You have done it & that in a beautiful photo.
Thanks, VM.
Good one!
Always enjoy your humour!
Thanks, Resa.

That was a mean crow. I’ve never seen them show aggression towards people. They are very aggressive towards other birds. Thanks, Joni.
Yea I always watched her, it never pecked her but it chased her every morning until she was out of the gate. I have never hurt a bird I love watching all animals especially your owls and that dancing beaver of yours. Talk about funny. Love you guys. ❤️🤗
