Here, in the Binghamton area (specifically Endicott) we've seen Ravens this
year on a semi-regular basis, which has never happened before in my
awareness. I was wondering the same thing, myself. Are they becoming more
common around here?! We've also seen some in our short travels, which also
seems to be more frequent.

I just heard a Raven gronking as it flew by. I've noticed that occasionally
someone
will post a sighting and it has me wondering. Just how common ARE they?
We see or hear them every day, and think that there is a nest within a
mile or so to
our east. Most of the time we see them they are traversing an east/west
corridor,
seemingly using our road as a flight lane. The young must have fledged as
we are now
seeing a group of three.
We've always sort of assumed because we see them every day, that they are
becoming
more common, but maybe not? How often do people see or hear them?
