Description
The loud cry from the carrion Crow lets everyone know the bird is in the area. It is often seen in semi and open habitats that include rural and suburban areas. The black-colored bird only gathers in large flocks when it is time to roost. Otherwise, it flies in pairs or small groups scavenging for insects, seeds, and even small animals.

Feeding Habits
Carrion Crow's omnivorous diet includes carrion, insects, earthworms, grains, fruits, seeds, small mammals, and amphibians. Carrion Crow scavenges, forages, hunts solo or cooperatively, and opportunistically pilfers eggs or steals prey from other predators.
Habitat
The habitat of carrion Crow encompasses open country with sporadic trees, predominantly within temperate terrestrial zones. These birds thrive in mixed farmland, urban parks, and forest peripheries. Versatile in habitat choice, carrion Crow is also found in moorlands, coastal areas, and occasionally at high altitudes, indicating a broad altitudinal range across various regions.

Behavior
The rook is generally gregarious and the crow solitary, but rooks occasionally nest in isolated trees, and crows may feed with rooks; moreover, crows are often sociable in winter roosts. Like other species of corvid, carrion crows will actively harass predators and competitors that enter their territory or threaten them or their offspring, and will engage in group mobbing behaviour as a method to defend themselves. 
Distribution Area
The carrion crow (Corvus corone) and hooded crow (Corvus cornix, including its slightly larger allied form or race C. c. orientalis) are two very closely related species whose geographic distributions across Europe are illustrated in the accompanying diagram. The carrion crow is also found in the mountains and forests of Japan and also in the cities of Japan.
