Julie - I have rolled corn I "sprinkle" in my yard for two ducks who visit
me often. I have five crows who regularly come for that corn... :O) Ask
around for folks with livestock. I paid 12.00 for a 50# bag... that is a
LOT of rolled corn (but I'm amazed at how quickly it's going! LOL).

A neighbor (around the corner) was feeding crows bread, much to the angst of
his other neighbor... The crows really seemed to enjoy those stale hot dog
and hamburger buns. <grin>

Good luck to your kids!
