You know a gathering of crows such as you picture is called a "murder of crows"; don't know why.

In reference to the 2nd image, I saw a video of a crow attacking an Amazon delivery drone on the net.

They show no fear. I've see them attacking humans that wore masks as an experiment. Thanks Soul Dr. for the input. vz

Great set, Erik. Easy to see when they are in a bunch why it is called a "murder."

Thanks Mike. There is a large population at one of the places I go and they are not afraid to throw their weight around. vz

FYI: A large group of crows is called a โ€œmurder.โ€ Apparently the term comes from medieval times, primarily because crows were associated with death.
Havenโ€™t figured out exactly where the term flock changes to murder.
