Dan+Observation

(when I say bird I am referring to my species specifically) March 8 For a couple of minutes I heard crows cawing. but at 3:40 I saw my first bird. It was around three other birds, flying pretty high. There was another group of birds near them. I continue to hear the birds, and occasionally I will see a bird in a tree. March 10

I saw no crows so I put some bread on the ground near my trash cans. Then I started to hear some cawing near me (crows coming). The calls are faint but the distinctive Ca!!!!Ca!!!!Ca!!!!!!!!!! I see a bird in a tree around some other birds. They will not go to close to the bread probably because I am near. Edit: A couple minutes later I went out and some bread was gone.

March 12

I see a bird sitting in my front yard on the snow, like the bird was looking for something. It flew to the other side of the road in a tree. Then he flew back looking for stuff (i think). Maybe perhaps he is building a nest.

March 13

I see a bird sitting by the trees at the end of my driveway. I think he is looking for something possibly twigs because there a lots of them, as the tree is old. He is just walking around in circles on my drive way, and its kid a boring. He hasn’t made too many noises. He just flew away.

March 14

I put out some bread on the ground again. and later I start to hear cawing, I don’t know if this is related to my bread. One call is loud and sounds close. I really started getting bored so I made a caw noise, and right after I did so did he! So we went back and forth with are bird-like conversation.

March 17

I am outside on the back of my field because I heard caws. I see a large crow in the tree. Its a lot fatter than the ones near it. It will fly back and forth between to tall trees. Cawing every once and a wile to other birds ( I think). Later it flew away with other birds.

March 17 (2)

Out back I see a good sized bird at the top of a high tree. It is making a short Ca! noise that doesn’t last as long as the other cawing’s that other birds do. Then 4-5 other birds (that I didn’t see until now) flew of with it. March 29

In my neighbors yard I see a bird in their trees. I am looking with binoculars but hiding not wanting to look like a stalker. I can hear a faint call that the bird is making. Finally it flew over me into my trees. It stayed there for a minute and flew off.

March 30

For todays sightings I will write a poem.

Crow, I see a crow in my tree He keeps staring right at me, He flies about and moves around, and for a while he hits the ground He flies around my house today than decided to fly away.

April 3

I hear caws that are close and I look and see a crow in a tree. Not many other crows outside, probably due to the wind.. But he is pretty active moving from tree to tree he flew of in the direction. He did the same thing over and over. Than he flew off in the direction of the wind, as I couldn’t imagine him going the other way.

April 3

There is a crow. He landed in my tree. He is just sitting there. Kind windy so i’m not surprised he just doesn’t fly off the tree. He starts flying from tree to tree. Then he just flew off.

April 3

There is a bird flying up and lands in tree. He sits in the tree and is cawing a little, acting like a normal bird. Moves to another tree and hear other caws in the distant and I wonder if those birds are related to mine.
