You are describing the symptoms of West Nile Virus in the crows. Your local health department likely wants those crows for testing.

I just read that some crows up north have tested positive for the bird flu virus found in SE Asia. I'm going to mention that to them. Japanese love panic, so they might latch on to that theory rather than the poor cats. rona -- ***For e-mail, replace .com with .ca Sorry for the inconvenience!*** "[America] is filled with people who decided not to live in Europe.

Rona, I hope it isn't the avian flu, but I hope they can be convinced it isn't the cats.

Dead Crows are/can be a big indicator of major trouble. Mike |
