FYI,                                                                                            The California D.O.T found over 200 dead crows on California Highways  recently, and there was concern that they may have died from Avian Flu. A  Pathologist examined the remains of all the crows, and, to everyone's  relief, confirmed the problem was NOT Avian Flu. The cause of death  appeared to be from vehicular impacts. However, during analysis it was  noted that varying colors of paints appeared on the ...bird's beaks and  claws. By analyzing these paint residues it was found that 98% of the crows had been killed by impact with motorbikes, while only 2% were killed by cars.
 The Agency then hired an Ornithological Behaviorist to determine if  there was a cause for the disproportionate percentages of motorbike  kills versus car kills. The Ornithological Behaviorist quickly concluded  that when crows eat road kill, they always have a look-out crow to warn  of danger. They discovered that while all the lookout crows could shout  "Cah", not a single one could shout "bike".
