Crows are attentive parents and there is no indication or support of what you so slanderously insinuate.

Well I got bird house nests with blue tit juveniles on my balcony every year. They are very attentive at any chance eating them.

Oh yeah, they'll eat other birds and chicks.

They eat road-pizza squirrels as well. Although they're scared shitless by the still-living ones.

- Gang up on hawks
- Get chased away by solitary bluejays and squirrels

Happend in my street last year, chick didn't quite have flying down and fell out, local cat going for a stroll got suppressed under a car from the crow mafia that had turned up.

Meanwhile my local crows just sit there looking aggrieved while a single squirrel eats all the peanuts I put out for them. I don't understand it at all, but squirrels must be seriously badass, at least as far as crows are concerned.

I saw a crow this morning carry a French fry up to the roof then look at it for a bit and hopefully around listening for it's buddies then it just flew off and let the fry roll into the gutter

I like watching the grackles go about their morning routine, but I rarely see true crows where I'm at.

  • Destroy the eggs of every bird nest you can find so your crow family can be the only species of bird for miles.

It's not quite as bad as you make it seem. Yes, crows prey on nests with eggs and young. They also prey on adult birds. As do most predators you can name: snakes, opossums, cats, etc etc.

They themselves are prey, with only sbout half of all crows making it to adulthood. Rarely are they responsible for "wiping out" other species. They do it sometimes, rarely, but it is not more so than other predators
