The local TV stations have not been much help either. I guess there’s nothing to know? You’d think there would be some local news that two TV stations and a newspaper might think about covering.

    They are everywhere in this town and no one knows what to do about it. I like crows so I think it’s funny that people are constantly bitching about them.

        Don’t have this issue myself, but usually when people complain about crows it’s because they are getting into trash cans, dumpsters, etc and just making a mess of things. Presumably they think it’s fun?

        for those who don’t know a group of crows is called a murder of crows. Some people are trying to change it to ‘flock’ so it’s more consistent with other birds, but in MY MIND they’re still called a murder because it fits their vibes. Also Pluto is a planet to me. Screw consistency, it’s cute dammit.

        If you’re a dick to crows, they remember you and tell their family. Hitchcock’s film wouldn’t be too far off if this town really went to war with the crows. So far, they’ve tried making loud noises like shooting a cannonball-free cannon (really) and they’ve now given that up and have put those inflatable wiggly people on the tops of all the buildings downtown because supposedly that keeps the crows away (it does not keep them away).

        Personally, I’m hoping the crows take over. They would probably do a better job.
