The crows live down at our daughter’s house. They like this big tall cottonwood—always the last to lose its leaves and the last to get new leaves in spring.
I’ve been wanting the crows to come up here. But they only fly through.
Sometimes they stop for a wee visit, but not long.
Maybe someday. I keep inviting them.
(But I’ve heard that where Crows live, the hawks don’t. I do rather enjoy our hawks.)

Life on a Colorado Farm 
Crows were common back in my WA neighborhood. Lots of pine and maple trees they would nest in. They loved to come into the yard to clean up what fell from the feeders and when one of our local hawks came hunting for small birds they were always the first to gather and chase it off. It’s the magpies now that are way more prolific than the crows.

Crows and no hawks! We used to have magpies and they wouldn’t hesitate attacking hawks.
