Those blankety-blank crows obviously read my blog.
At a few minutes before 5 this morning, I started hearing them calling in the woods nearby.
Or maybe they were laughing.
Not one single crow has shown his greedy little destructive beak yet this morning. Rats. And I was so ready.

About Me
I live with my husband on a small homestead in Northern Minnesota. Our daughter currently lives in a small cabin in the woods not too far from us.
Our place is located outside a small town and a two and a half hour's drive from the nearest big city. Trips to the city are infrequent, well-planned, and exhausting!
We currently raise chickens and have hives of honey bees. Raising some of our meat and most of our fruits and vegetables is a priority for us; so, along with our birds for meat and eggs, we have fruit trees, berry patches and a huge vegetable garden.
Quilting is my passion, and I could happily spend each day in my quilt studio if I weren't happily spending each day out in the garden. Good thing we have winters up here; Mother Nature helps keep my life balanced.

Keep everlastingly at it. Because they will.
Did you know that crows are one of the only birds smart enough to use tools? I really think it is in your best interest not to irritate those crows ;)
They are definitely staging something...!
Crows are very smart birds.... yep, they were laughing mama pea.
Are they related to starlings?? :)
I've heard of plant a row for the hungry, looks like you need to plant a row (or two or three) for the crows if you want any food for yourself and Papa Pea. Hopefully they will get you "Armed and Dangerous" message and go find their meals elsewhere.
JJ - We have a rainy day here today so I'm thinking they're staying in their cozy crow's home today. But you're right, I will have to do something to discourage them permanently. I'm not liking the thought of getting up every morning at 4:30. :o(
Jane - Oh, great. Now I have this vision of a troop of them pulling this big ol' crow cannon out of the woods and aiming it directly toward the house.
Erin - Can I call in a Swat Team for crow eradication?
Spiderjohn - I was afraid of that.
odiie - Are they related to starlings? Must be!
Tombstone Livestock - I know there are some gardeners who say you have to share with the wild life, but they are not even sharing nicely!
.....they are so gonna be there tomorrow :-)
dr momi - Siiiigh. I know. :o\
