I'm wondering if I should just leave the poor crows alone. I tried to call some in this weekend, and they came in, but I couldn't get a shot - I think they saw me and were smart enough not to land anywhere (damn they're smart!). But I got to thinking - why kill them at all? I don't want to be a "slob"/unethical hunter, so everything I kill, there needs to be a reason for. I ain't gonna eat them, and unlike coyotes and perhaps foxes, they don't depredate my other game, being scavengers. Unlike groundhogs, they don't make holes that the cattle step in, etc. So, yes, there's a legal season on them for some reason. But I think I may just leave them alone. Just for fun ain't a good enough reason fore *me*. Any real reason to whack them?
