Today I looked outside and noticed a crow on a tree branch near where my chickens(11weeks) were hanging around. I went outside and started toward my chicken area and the crow had flown down and was standing on the fence post 4 ft from the chickens looking at the chickens under the hydrangea bush that they like to spend time under. The chickens were looking right at the crow. It looked like a stare down. As I approached closer the crow flew off. I believe the crow may have been looking to see if there were any baby chicks. I hope it wasn't thinking about grabbing one of them. I think they are much to big for the crow as they are about the same size as the crow. My chickens did not appear to be concerned, just curious. :confused:
 
Weird. We have a lot of crow friends who always chase off hawks. I've never had that issue before.
Yes they do chase off hawks however crows are bad to steal baby birds from wild bird nests and I think it may have seen my chickens and thought there could be baby chicks to confiscate to feed to their babies.
