I had them snatching chicks out of under broody hens in the yard one year. They would come back every spring to look for more for like 10 years. They are obnoxious birds.
Diving my Calls today and eating the feed from the wild bird feeder. Killed my nest of baby Robins...They are terrible...

Crows are after my Ducks too..I'm actually stressed out. I need a pellet Gun ASAP...:rant
I got 2 BB guns myself, and my husband has a high power pellet gun he uses for birds. Our biggest problem is the boards of Starlings that try to winter over in my shed. We can get hundreds in the fall. I hate Starlings.

I'm working on laundry and some house cleaning today. So if I disappear for a while I will return. I also need to make sure all my critters stay hydrated in this heat.

I'm so happy to see my drake traveling with his duck hens now. He seems happier. Too. Thanks for helping me through his problems. I would have never known what was going on, but you talked me through that. :clap There's no high five emoji here.

Raven would steal the horses grain and viciously chase them off at my step Dads place. I started feeding everyone in bowls at the Barn..

They are an obnoxious invasive species from Europe. People sometimes keep them as pets because they are smart like crows. I prefer to see them without heads. They are dirty noisy nasty birds that poop all in my feed and waters. :barnie
