Crows

I snapped these photos yesterday as I arrived home just as a murder of crows flew overhead (A murder is a group of crows).  There are so many crows in Seattle and many of them hang out on the power lines outside our appartement.  They also migrate over our home as seen in these photos.  I haven’t always been a fan of crows, but I have a new-found interest.

The University of Washington has been tracking and observing these birds for years and their research is very interesting.  Check out this short clip http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vfI5-RWC-QQ.

These animals are fascinating!
