Over the last 3-4 weeks there has been an influx of Crows into south 
Columbus Ohio.  Great Southern Shopping Center along South High Street 
just north of I 270 used to boast of a small flock of Gulls that 
frequented the line of fast food restaurants along the street.  They are 
long gone, replaced by a murder of crows that gather in the morning and 
hang out all day.  I also found a roost of about 200 crows just North of 
104 just West of Lockbourne rd 8 days ago,  A large group also was 
observed last Friday flying from S. High St. toward the landfill at 665 
and I 71.  

Crows are usually found at the landfill but not in the semiurban area 
along S. High.  I wonder if this has been observed before as i have only 3 
yrs experience in this area.

Thanks , good birding,  Phillip North.
