American crows (Corvus brachyrhynchos) are found throughout most of the lower 48 US states, as well as southern Canada, northern Baja California, and Mexico. They are permanent residents in many areas, but in the north, flocks migrate south for the winter.

The American crow is native to North America, and can be found from Canada through the continental United States.

Not from what i can see

American crows are social, family-oriented birds that form close-knit family units. These family units can include up to 15 crows, including parents, offspring from multiple years, and unmated birds.

Families may include up to 15 individuals and contain young from five different years. In some areas, the American Crow has a double life. It maintains a territory year-round in which the entire extended family lives and forages together.

As a highly social species, crows use a wide range of vocalizations. Caws, rattles, clicks, patterns, and coos, to stay in constant contact with one another. Crow language is like Mandarin or Vietnamese, which are tonal languages, meaning the same word can mean different things depending on the emphasis put on different parts or the speed with which it is spoken.

They typically only have one successful brood per year

American crows are monogamous and mate for life.

Breeding season usually begins in March to June.

Crows perform a courtship ritual that includes aerial maneuvers, bowing, strutting, and puffing their feathers. On the ground or in a tree, the male crow will face the female, bow repeatedly, and give a short rattling song while fluffing up his feathers and partly spreading his wings and tail.

The average clutch size is 4 to 6 eggs, which hatch in about 18 days. The young fledge about 30 days after hatching and forage with their parents throughout the summer. Nest success is lowest in populations in urban areas, which averages only 1 fledging per brood.

No, just typical bird mating.

Hatchling: A baby crow that has just hatched, Nestling: A baby crow that is a few days old and still in the nest, Fledgling: A baby crow that has left the nest and may be learning to fly, Juvenile: A young crow that doesn't look like an adult yet, still having its baby feathers, Hatch-year: A crow that is within one year of its hatching date, now able to fly while losing baby feathers

Sexual maturity occurs at two years of age.

Adult American crows have few predators, but their broods can be susceptible to predation by a variety of animals, including: raccoons, great-horned owls, larger hawks, and canids. Owls afecting both brood and Adult.

American crows are susceptible to several diseases, including West Nile virus (WNV) and avian reovirus.

crows are always competing and fighting for scraps of food. Pairs may cooperate but not larger groups.

As of April 2024, the IUCN Red List lists the American crow (Corvus brachyrhynchos) as Least Concern (LC).

The global breeding population of American crows (Corvus brachyrhynchos) is estimated to be between 27 and 28 million

American crow populations have been declining across North America for decades, but they may be increasing in urban areas

The amount and degree of damage is highly variable among places and years. Crows may tear up turf searching for worms and other invertebrates in the grass. Large roosts can foul areas with their excrement.

Crows may damage crops, although many problems are more commonly associated with other species of wildlife. Crows damage seedling corn plants by pulling the sprouts and eating the kernels. Crows consume ripening corn during the milk and dough stages, although such damage also is commonly caused by blackbirds. Crows also damage grain sorghum, commercial sunflowers, fruits, and watermelons.
