Here the crows are supposed to be bad luck birds. First, they are black and it relates to the death, I guess. Second, their sound are not lovely as well as other birds. We think it is a sad and ugly sound. Third, in our ancient time these birds were often available in the tombs according to our novels. This is why Chinese don't like crows.

It is so sad that some cultures discriminate animals. Crows are the most intelligent of the birds, their voice is not nice, but there are other birds that are not nice at all to hear.

It seems some Indians worship the mice and I can't really understand it.

I do not like crows either. They are not bad luck here.

I am surprised to hear that since your country and my country is so far away but we also think crows are bad luck birds.

@LadyDuck Oops! Now you can really tell my eyesight isn't good. I don't wear optical glasses when I use the computer most of the time

When a crow crows it is supposed to let us know we will have guests and often it has happened that way. I like crows.

Many of them come to our back yard almost daily but we don't really think of them as bad luck...

@shshiju Yes, perhaps this will give crows a bad impression.

Some people think so. They are some of the first birds I meet in the morning but I don't think they brought me any bad luck.

Scientists found that the crows are very clever birds.
