Today around noon I was checking out the beach and brushy areas west of the
west end of the parking lot at the Magee Marsh boardwalk when I thought I
heard a single call of a Fish Crow.

Then, at 12:15 I was standing at the "loop" at the extreme west end of the
parking lot and the Fish Crow flew directly overhead at a height of about 30
feet, calling as it flew. It called several times as it flew towards me and
overhead, and it continued west along the beach and out of sight.

This was a single crow, and appeared rather small in size.

I remained in the vicinity for about 45 minutes as I ate lunch, and I did
not hear or see it again.

The call was unmistakable!

I hope someone will be able to relocate this bird so it can be appropriately
documented!
