WATCH: Hundreds of Crows Form Spooky Swarm in Lewiston, Maine
Why was there a swarm of crows in Lewiston, Maine?
Colton Jackson caught a swarm of crows flying around lower Goff Hill. Of course, it doesn't help the crow's image that when a bunch of them get together, they are referred to as a murder.
Why did these crows swarm Lewiston, Maine?
Well, sorry Lewiston, but there's not a lot of reasoning as to why the town seems to be the popular crow-gathering place these days. According to some experts, it could just be to chat with one another about things like where food is. WGME did a story about how crows swarm around the Franklin Athletic Complex field and cause not just annoyance, but damage!
If crows weren't so loud, it would be a whole lot easier to put up with them. I mean, they are kind of fascinating.
Crows are swarming Lewiston, Maine, but they also swarm other places in Maine.
Sarah Fenderson took this photo two years ago in the Lowe's parking lot in Scarborough, Maine. It kind of sounds like teenagers meeting up in the parking lot of Lowe's to chat about where to eat and who's going out with whom. Crows are smart and sociable. Okay, not exactly like teenagers...
Last year, the Bangor Daily News' Deputy Opinion Editor Matt Junker and friend Alex Cole videoed at least hundreds (maybe thousands) of crows near Oak Street in Bangor, Maine. This was in the wee hours of the morning on Tuesday, January 2, 2023.
The good news is that this is not the plot of a horror movie. The bad news is that it might as well be the plot of a horror movie.
