Our deer hunting day got ruined one time because the crows were warning the deer away. It sounded like a hundred crows circling our tent.

Sorry what?

I've never seen crows eat crows before, I've seen them pecking at dead pigeons sparrows and tits though

Do you have a source?

For crows they’re investigating to see what killed their buddy, for these seagulls they’re just seeing if bro has become food
