isnt there advice against eating corvids?...
although i have eaten crow, stewed in beer from an old english recipe a mate once read.
it wasnt the best tasting bird,..
sure it wasnt rook? we eat rook,some folk think their crows,however theyre not carrion.
as for eating magpie,well if i was hungry i would,probably marinade in pataks vindaloo overnight to blind the taste!
