The #crows have started nesting! You can see them all over the place finding the perfect sticks, clumps of soil, and bits of moss and foliage. It's hard work so toss them some peanuts or cheesies.

For most of the year they have a shared roost (in Burnaby) but in the spring they nest in their territories to lay eggs and raise the baby crows. They usually lay eggs in April, which is when they'll start dive bombing people who get too close. If you're ever getting "attacked", just give them some food - crows won't dive bomb their friends.

Once the fledglings have learned to fly and mastered crow basics, they'll all abandon the nest and return to the shared roost at night.
