Thank you, Tobin.
I know that the Fish Crows have been seen and heard along the Platte
awhile back (several years). They are nesting along Saylorville Lake
(north of Des Moines, IA.). They used to be seen regularly on the
Mississippi, south of Davenport, IA (many years ago.)
I have been super busy with non-birding activities so I did not wish to
"chase" a bird posted by someone I am not familiar with, especially based
on vocalization only.
Anyway, thanks for responding. I really appreciate it.
BTW how is April going with your Big Year effort?
God Bless.
