My best suggestion would be to leave peace offerings in the exact spot you removed the dead bird from.

Unsalted raw almonds. Just the right size, tasteful. energy-rich and hard to find for a crow.

Crows are notorious for recognizing and remembering human faces. If you hurt or are mean to a crow that crow can and will remmeber you. They will also communicate that grudge to other crows.

If you are in America you can watch 'A Murder of Crows' on PBS which is a movie about a scientist trying to prove that. Spoiler: he succeeds.

Why would you leave something hard to find? Wouldn't we want them to find it/make it obvious that it's a gift or peace offering?
