I have seen large groups of crows in my area. To be honest, I never paid much attention to the time of year but now I think it is in the winter months. I live in Copper Canyon Texas north of the Dallas area. My property backs up to Army Corp of Engineering property which is part of Lewisville Lake flood plain. There are many trees that could be used for roosting on the Corp property and of course the lake or water is nearby also In the evenings a large group of Crows (maybe 150-200) will take turns holding a large meeting in one of our 2 acre lots. They begin gathering around 4 or 4:30 and become very vocal. One crow will rise up and Caw loudly and then several others will join in. My Aunt once told me about this behavior and said it reminded her of a large meeting and perhaps they were discussing the day's activities. Near sunset they all fly off mainly to the Corp property. I have made a note to observe what time of the year it starts because now I realize it is not happening during the summer or breeding time.
