Crow
« on: May 16, 2008, 09:48:50 »
The last couple of days, I have spotted a big black crow which keeps landing on the window ledges of our house and others down the road. They usually nest in some tall trees nearby but I've never seen one behaving like this before. Anyone any idea what it might be doing? Obviously it might not be the same one every time!

A narcissist falling in love with his own reflection?

I spotted a blue tit having a go at his own reflection in a car's wing mirror the other morning, bless his heart! it might be the same thing with your crow: he's seen his reflection in the window and thinks it's a rival in the neighbourhood??

I looked up and saw mrs blackbird sitting on the sill and looking in the other day! crows,magpies and jackdaws are getting very brave and coming down in the garden for scraps there are rooks on the roofs but they just mug the starlings for theirs

It really makes you jump when they suddenly appear there!
