Default trout fishin' ravens

They are eaten from time to time here, but I'm not sure what the best recipe
is.

Are there any crows left in that part of the world? I've heard the West
Nile virus got them all. We have crows, ravens and fish crows here.


We have crows here, right now, in the Sawtooth Mountains of central
Idaho. They're just about the only bird that hangs around through the
winter. I think they survive on roadkill. They are very wary birds,
because Idaho has a year-long open season on crows. Why anyone would
want to shoot one is totally beyond me.

I remember reading once that in Mexico they value the crow over the
duck as food. It seems that there were arguements between the
governments about which bird was the pest, and which was food. We
agreed to not kill all the crows, and Mexico agreed not to kill all the
ducks.

Can anybody corroborate this?

Thanks,

Chas
