Fish Crows. One is on guard and three eating. This guard normal fllys into the "Point" takes food and the signals the other three to come to breakfast and then acts as lookout. These 4 birds have been in the area for a while as a team. While one usually would not think of a Fish Crow as a predator, these birds have taken small surface fish from the water and shoreline. Truely bandits, theives, and surpreme hunters stealing Heron eggs and harassing the Hawks and Ospreys. With their non-fan tails these birds are often confusted with the Southern Crow (aka Common Crow) who lives in this same area.
