The Pied Crow has a large range in Africa, both in land area and in 
altitude. It usually lives in open areas with towns nearby. Although 
not primarily a bird of mountainous country, it has been found 
living at elevations up to 12,000 feet in Ethiopia. Even though 
Ethiopia is near the equator, that altitude must make for some 
really cold winters.
