Crows

Post by stormofwind »

I have noticed something about them of late, many years ago were had virus or something
killed most of them off.. they come now there so much bigger than they were before
We had one the back yard he was the size of small chicken he looked like raven.
But we live in california.. so I think there so kind of mutation going on with them.
I noticed even the young ones are bigger than them were before.

That was west Nile virus. Spread mostly by a mosquito as I recall. It actually got me in 2005, I was very sick with the worst headache in the world, fever, rash, stiff neck and confusion. The confusion part lasted several weeks or longer and was difficult when I was working in the flower shop, as I frequently went the wrong direction when delivering flowers (even being very familiar with the area) that was confounding.
But back to crows, they seem to have made a good recovery, I don't notice them to be larger really, perhaps you have ravens. That virus also affected other birds and mammals. As far as I know that virus is here to stay. But the birds don't seem to be dropping dead like they were when it first broke out. So maybe they have morphed into some kind of super-crow.

Id read a Pinterest superstition on crows - Seeing 1 crow is considered bad luck, 2 crows means good luck, 3 crows mean health, and 4 crows mean wealth, 5 crows means sickness is coming, and 6 crows means death is nearby.
