Field Notes

Description:

Bird is large all black

Habitat:

The range of the American Crow extends from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic Ocean in Canada, on the French islands of Saint-Pierre and Miquelon, south through the United States, and into northern Mexico.[1] Virtually all types of country from wilderness, farmland, parks, open woodland to towns and major cities are inhabited; it is absent only from Pacific temperate rain forests and tundra habitat where it is replaced by the raven. This crow is a permanent resident in most of the USA, but most Canadian birds migrate some distances southward in winter. Outside of the nesting season these birds often gather in large (thousands or even millions[12]) communal roosts at night.

The American Crow was recorded in Bermuda from 1876 onwards.[13]

Hi Scott...Nice capture! While Crows are definitely meat eaters, they are not Raptors. Would you please remove this from the Raptors of North America mission?
