Karen (and all) - Anyone with a wildlife "problem" should contact DNR's wildlife hotline at 1-877-463-6497. This number is staffed (under contract) by experts in resolving human-wildlife conflicts, who work for the US Department of Agriculture's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, Wildlife Services http://www.aphis.usda.gov/wildlife_damage/index.shtml.

Subject: [MDOSPREY] Annoying crow roosts
Hi all, the Director of Parks in Baltimore City has asked for help with the
problem of thousands of crows roosting in large trees in the City. I've
basically told him, "Good luck" and referred him to the Cornell "Frequently
Asked Questions About Crows" website for an education on this fascinating
bird....and to a Humane Society site regarding gentle harassment. However, it
is becoming a public health problem and I was wondering whether anyone had some
humane and legal advice.
Thanks, Karen
