Crow

Crows are recurring enemies in the Legend of Zelda series.

The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
Crows can be found scattered throughout the Light World, but are commonly found in the Lost Woods and the forested areas near them. They sit on trees or cliff faces. When Link walks by, they fly and then take a swooping dive towards him. They may take two or three dives, but if they aren't slain they will fly away.

The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening
Crows are larger and more powerful than those in A Link to the Past. They don't make multiple attempts to attack Link, flying straight off screen if they miss their initial diving attack.

One specific crow in Kanalet Castle holds one of the five Golden Leaves and is more powerful than a standard crow. It will not leave its tree unless Link throws a rock against the tree.

The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons
Crows are functionally identical to the crows in A Link to the Past. In some places, crows fly in from off-screen rather than waiting in trees to attack Link.

The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap
In this game, Crows have dark blue plumage. They can be found all over Hyrule. Like most crows, they wait in trees and swoop down to attack Link. They are nimble but not strong, and can be defeated with one sword strike.

The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks
Crows appear as enemies who sit in trees waiting for Link to pass by. They attack Link causing him to drop Rupees which, afterwards, they try to steal.
