Fish Crows have been coming to the pin oaks in my yard and the neighbors' yard for several weeks, and recently they are here every day.   They are not ere all the time, but I commonly hear them for a short while around mid-day and in the late afternoon/early evening.  Their calls are distinctive and noticeably different from American Crow.   American Crows in my immediate area were all rapidly killed by West Nile Virus in 2002 and have still not returned to our oaks.
