They are here in Mercer County all winter & Summer.  We put corn out for The Mallards & Wood Ducks.  Heard a Crow calling yesterday AM while I was having my coffee.  Sure enough - one on the corn.  Just happened to have a shotgun ready for the starlings that won't learn.  A second one that I didn't see was closer to my porch.  1st double in a long time, not perfect, used both barrels but they are now fish food.  Dick

Thanks for the incentive...Went out with a buddy Saturday afternoon and set up for about an hour or so. Killed three over 8 decoys and a FoxPro Firestorm. Had a blast.

has anyone heard if that roost over at Park City has built back up since they poisoned them out a few years ago?...

Well ever since the PPHA had the Million Crow, "Crow Hunt", there hasn't been a crow even fly over Lancaster Co.. :o That day that will live in infamy,someone shot the only breeder!  :'( Yep..God's honest truth only Ducks live there now.... ;)... 8) When you get this way, give me a shout if you have the time and I will buy you breakfast if you promise to stick to one slice of toast and coffee... ;D

I believe you can kill a crow if it is coming from committing damage or going to commit damage. Growing up on a farm thats all a crow ever did.
