sbruenjes 50 Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 I saw these birds at Overpeck County Park in Bergen County, New Jersey. I couldn't hear them because they were a bit off in the distance, but there was a body of water nearby. Is there a way to determine these are fish crow without audio?
