The Pied crows are leaving KZN in search for better weather in the Cape

A study conducted by the University of Cape Town ornithology department found that found pied crows were leaving the north-east of South Africa, largely as a result of climate change and better habitat in the south-western shrub lands.

The study was published last week in the international scientific journal Diversity and Distributions, and showed that crows are leaving KwaZulu-Natal for the fairer Cape because the weather and habitat are better.
