Raven, good stuff. I've seen crows badger owls for hours on end.
Ruins a good morning of peace and quiet.

Crows start harassing the nesting Red Tails about sunrise in the back yard. Sunrise was 5:18 this morning. About 45 minutes later when the crows loose interest or steam the Blue Jays take over. Can't decide which is worse sound level wise, but Crows are worse since they start it all way too early.

If you really want to see the Crows in pack action, wait til sunset when the foxes stroll by. Crows screaming and divebombing the whole way.

Gulls on Cutty drop the defenseless little bunnies off the cliff and onto the rocks. Just like they was clams. Poor #^&#^&#^&#^&ey, scarred for life. Well....more scarred.

i have this bird songs record ok... (out of a bird book)
and on it is basically every single song bird in north america

INCLUDING a .... crows harass an Owl fight
well i must have listened to that thing a 1000 times as a kid
so i knew very well how to imitate it.... this fight and had practiced
it until i had the mimicry down to a science

years later..........
while camping in massachusetts one morning i got up real
early around first light (5:00am) and snuck out to the woods in a full
sized cotton camouflaged poncho ..... to not be seen

just out there walking,and observing Nature

then i see the Murder of crows advancing but they hadn't spotted me
so i selected a dense full small pine tree and began my assault
as i screamed in owl and crow and shook the tree violently while hiding under it several crows picked up on the fight and joined in...

well this quickly escalated until there were more crows then i could imagine
and the sound of the screaming absolutely deafening
but i kept it going making it sound like the OWL was killing the crow

man oh man, did that piss them off and they started diving into the
tree trying to get a piece of that nasty owl ....i started getting bumped into
and by now it was so F-ing loud i thought my ears
would pop....

i could hear the rushing of wind from the flying in this crow tornado of anger and it was very scary actually
....the raw Power of it.... soon it became just unbearable
and so i ended it after about 20 minutes....of battle! INSANITY

So i go running out of there and quickly head back to camp
and EVERYONE (40 people) is up out of there tents very angry about being
awakened by the uproar..... of those dammed crows

I said absolutely nothing
or there would have been a Lynching.
