Does anyone have a reliable time of day during this period when the droves of crows assemble at Mt. St. Vincent U, and where specifically the roost is? Do they arrive only around sunset? Are they there early in the morning after sun-up for a while?

  Subject: [NatureNS] crow roost


  The crow roost that congregates before going, I presume, to the Mount St. Vincent roost, was spectacular tonight. There were so many crows they looked like gnats in the sky and, for me, impossible to count.  My condo is adjacent to the 102 highway near the quarries and Blue Mountain Wilderness area so I see the crow roost assembling on most evening's right at sunset. Does anyone monitor this roosting? They seem to have increased hugely this past year.

  Joan Waldron
