The American Crow is omnivorous. It feeds on a variety of things, including seeds, human food scraps, eggs, nestlings and different types of grains, with corn and wheat being their favorite. They also prey on smaller animals, such as mice and frogs and sometimes you will see them visit a bird feeder. Later in the cooler months, they tend to favor a variety of nuts. Some Crows have been observed using tools to gather their food.
An excellent entry with a good story and some very good pictures that say it all, is that the crow was thirsty ...

ReplyDeleteViewing the ice handling crow is certainly helping me cool off in this rare 80 degree weather we are experiencing here in Chicago. Great photos! Terrific post, as always!
