Feeding Habits
House Crow are omnivorous, consuming refuse, small reptiles, mammals, insects, eggs, nestlings, grain, and fruit. They forage on the ground and in trees, adapt opportunistically, and may snatch prey mid-air.
Habitat
House Crow mainly resides in areas significantly influenced by human presence within tropical and subtropical zones. These adaptable birds are found in diverse settings, from urban environments such as city parks and busy transport hubs to rural coastal villages. While they frequent lowlands, they've also colonized mountainous terrains in the Himalayas, usually below 1600 meters, with occasional sightings up to 2900 meters, and even higher near some military outposts.
