[TN-Bird] Re: Fish Crow?

Bates, and others,

Since moving here from the Chesapeake, I've been HOPING to find a
Fish Crow.  I used to fancy myself pretty good at discerning the two
visually, when I saw both every day from my yard.  But I haven't yet.
 There is a good chance what you observed was a first year American
Crow.  They have a very nasally call.
