Crows can be pretty territorial and are relentless in chasing off raptors. They usually work in teams and this guy's mates are just out of frame.

They are gutsy. You would think it would be the other way around. Great work capturing that. V

Excellent in flight action catch, those crows are something else when they gang up on those raptors. V

That's pretty interesting about crows chasing off raptors, and you got a great capture of this example of it.

fantastic shot...crows are aggressive, and will even chase away eagles up here...they are the bikers of the bird world..
