Crows roosting (Free Little Bird)

Looking out my back door today I could see these crows in the trees. I watched them for about a half hour. Here is a short video.

I dug up a song (Free Little Bird) that I posted on youtube 4 years ago (My gosh, I do look younger) hoping that I might hear from someone regarding the Gibson banjo uke with the metal head and steel strings.
Killing two birds with one stone you might say...

note found on the internet:
It is conceivable that crows somehow stumbled across the fact that they could not be shot in cities because of local ordinances against shooting in town. So, in fact crows might have somehow figured out that the best thing to do to live with their enemy was to get as close as possible, not stay away. Many crow hunters do most of their hunting along flight lines of crows moving to roost. These flight lines through urban areas are protected, those in rural areas are not.

Hi Lew,another great song, this kind of flocking crow is known in the UK as a rook. I've never seen one eat carrion like crows, they seem to eat earthworms & grubs, I suppose that's why they have such a long beak. I live on a flight line. The rookery has a couple of thousand nesting pairs but they always go to their different feeding grounds in small groups, they never over exploit any area. There going and coming back is a wonderful sight.

Adore crows. They are so very, very intelligent and they harm no one. Anyone who shoots them is not very intelligent and harms us all. Cool Gibson uke, great song. Thanks so much for posting this!
