HOUSE CROW MONITOR

(last updated 24
January 2004)
The House Crow Corvus splendens has a native range which stretches
throughout the Indian Subcontinent, including southern Iran, Myanmar, Nepal and
Sri Lanka where it is very common in cities, towns and villages. Over
the last century they have spread on board ships, establishing
colonies in about 20 countries bordering the Red Sea, Indian Ocean and its
islands, where they have usually reached pest status. Since 1994 a colony has
established in the Netherlands: the first outside the tropics. Lone birds have
also turned up in 12
other locations in Europe, Australia, Chile and USA
This web site is part of an ongoing programme to monitor the continuing
world-wide invasion of the House Crow and its changing status in places where it
has already established.
Any information you can provide will be
invaluable.
