    I know you're from our side of teh country so this might be of benefit. Stenson's Hardware in Mohill sells some ration in bags. A few years ago they were tormented with crows coming into the meal store as the door was left open all the time and they were picking holes in the bags. He made a small investment in an electronic device which makes the noise of a hawk. To this day, he has no problem with crows or any other birds in the meal store.
    Someone on here might know more about the device - or google is your friend.

    Were you unlucky in that you didn't hit the crow or that the dead crow didn't keep the crows away?
