The American Crow is not known for the beauty of its song, a series of loud caws.
Crows are black birds known for their intelligence and adaptability,
…and for their loud, harsh “caw.” listen:
They also have a reputation for damaging crops.
Sometimes gardeners build scarecrows to ‘scare’ the crows away from eating their veggies. They dress a tall stick near the fence of the garden in old clothes and a hat…to make the crows think that there is a human there; and would cause the crows to think twice before rummaging through the plants.
Drawing a crow with your kids can be fun, and maybe you can add a scarecrow.
If you and your kids draw a crow or a scarecrow…please send a scan or photo of it…I would love to see.
If you give me permission, I could add it to our gallery.
See you next time, happy drawing,
-Rose
