Crows, anyone else hate 'em

We used to live in a cottage which had 3 pairs of magpies nesting in close proximity - if you think the rooks are bad, you've never heard 2 male magpies having a face-off. The jays, woodpeckers, goshawks and nesting tawny owls more than made up for it, though. Damn, I REALLY miss that house... :cry:

Country girl too, but I have an inherent dislike of the Corvid family, especially Magpies because of the damage I've seen them do to the small bird population. When I lived on a farm, they would sus out the smaller birds nests, then wait until the youngsters were big enough to make a meal, and raid the nests.
Like any other animal without a natural predator they need the populations keeping under control, though you have to admire the way nature in general takes advantage of every opportunity - survival of the fittest in action. It's us as a species that has really b*ggered up the natural balance....
