Default Shootin' Crows?

HEy,

Just wondering, is it legal to shoot crows? Are they considered small game? Or do you need a license to shoot them? I have seen a ton of them around, and i wouldnt mind reducing the population that wakes me up at 5 in the morning. I haven't shot any yet. I usually run my questions through the board. You guys know very much, and this young grasshopper has much to learn.

Thanks in advance,

Jeff.

fair game... considered pests. Ravens on the other hand are a no no...
