Fish Crow
Adult--Entirely blue black. Length--16.00
Breeding Range--The Gulf coast, and the Atlantic coast from Long Island southward.
The nest and eggs are very similar to those of the common crow, the eggs being somewhat smaller. Size--1.50 x 1.06.
This crow lives near the sea-shore or along rivers, never very far from the sea-coast. It builds most often in cedars or other evergreens, many nests being found near together. It may be distinguished from the common crow by the extreme harshness of its voice.
The breeding season begins in May.
