The crow

Introduction: The crow is the most common bird in Bangladesh. It is seen very where in Bangladesh. People for its harsh voice dislike it.

Description: The crow is a black bird. Its body is covered with black feathers. It looks ugly. It has a harsh voice. Every day we hear its harsh voice from the daybreak. Its bills are very strong. It also has two crooked feet and sharp claws. Its wings are strong and eyes are sharp.

Eating Habit: Crows are omnivorous and eat grain, berries, insects, carrion, and the eggs of other birds. The crow’s habit of eating cultivated grains has made it very unpopular with farmers, who often try to kill the birds.

Importance: Crows also eat many economically harmful insects. They feed chiefly on the ground, where they walk about sedately. Crows are gregarious, and at times, they roost together in great numbers, but most species do not nest in colonies. Each mating pair has its own nest of sticks and twigs, usually high up in a tree, in which are laid five or six greenish-to-olive eggs that have darker speckles. A crow may live 13 years in the wild and more than 20 years in captivity. Some pet crows “speak” and in the laboratory some have learned to count to three or four and to find food in boxes marked with symbols.

Conclusion: Though people dislike crows for their ugliness, nasty habit, and wickedness, they are useful to us. They keep our environment clean by eating garbage and rotten animals. They also teach us to be active and united.
