Yeah, maybe so, Gene. Last week on the way home to Bothell from the SAS Nature Shop, I noticed crows streaming in two directions towards Kenmore. Well, if they are in the same roost that was described by John Withey in his lecture to our Master Birder Class, it is somewhere in Brier. I do remember him saying that they are "flexible" with where they roost, depending on where they end up eating their last meal, or somesuch!

Dennis,

They may have shifted towards Kenmore as Brien Meilleur's house in Sheridan Heights in Lake Forest Park is on a major flyway with a couple thousand at least passing overhead to the ne every evening.

Hello, tweets.


It just dawned on me recently that we don't any more have crows coming over our house in large numbers every morning and evening. Ever since we've lived here - 15 years - we've been on a substantial flight line (hundreds of crows going over every day), but this fall it never materialized. Either some major roost is in decline or they have changed their route, something I didn't realize would happen. Has anyone else noticed anything like this?
