Subject: [Tweeters] crow roost south of Seattle?

I live in the Twin Lakes area of Federal Way and had previously asked
Tweeters, if anybody knew of a roost southeast of Federal Way, but did not
get a response. I have seen crows head in that direction every evening for
many years - even now in the summer - and a lot more in the winter. There
has to be a roost south of Tukwila.
