Recruiting for Crow Observation Team

January 23, 2012

Crows settling in for the night under the light of RockTenn papermill emissions.

“One of the great animal phenomena of the world is the congregation of large numbers of birds into a single group to sleep together. Such communal sleeping groups are known as roosts.” Dr. Kevin J. McGowan, Cornell Lab of Ornithology

The Pomerene Center for the Arts is interested in building an understanding of Coshocton’s winter crow roost. January 30, the Pomerene will start mapping crow flight paths and roosting locations centered around the RockTenn paper mill.

We are inviting four high school students to join our Winter Crow Observation Team. Interested students can click to download the application form.  Crow Research Student Application Questions?  Email pomerenearts@gmail.com or call 740.622.0326

    Good for you! One evening Dick and I were working Local Bounty when the crows were coming in to roost. I loved it! I even cawed back to them. I know they can be a nuisance and a health problem in town, but when they do it by the river I just love the natural phenomena we have here. They are such intelligent birds.
