Changes in the numbers of corvids wintering in Warsaw (Central Poland), in the last sixteen years were analyzed. Four species were studied: Rook Corvus frugilegus L., Jackdaw C. monedula L., Hooded Crow C. corone cornix L. and Magpie Pica pica (L.) The results were based on density data for birds foraging in three urban parks. The bird counts were conducted in November and December 1988.2003. It was found that the number of wintering Rooks decreased significantly (0.5 fold), populations of Jackdaws and Hooded Crows - increased (4.25 and 3.95 fold, respectively), and no apparent trends were observed for Magpies during this period. Observed trends for Rooks as well as comparisons of limited data gathered earlier in other areas may confirm suggestions about the changing of migration routes of this species.
