Colombo Crow

House crow is also known as the Ceylon/Colombo Crow, Greynecked Crow Very common breeding resident of all coastal zones of Sri Lanka & India. Abundant in coastal and urban areas but not found in thick forests. It is omnivorous and scavenges on anything edible from worms to even plastic. In the recent past, uncontrolled garbage disposal has created an ideal condition for House crow to extend its habitats while threatening the survival of most other animals, especially avifauna in most of the urban areas. The breeding season is from May to September and it builds a nest that has just a mass of twigs with a hollow area lined with fibers.
