Resident Evil Village

You can reload a save and kill the same crow(s) more than once to get this.

A good spot to do this is early in the game, when you first open the castle gate by inserting the 2 crests. There are 2 crows sitting in the middle of the bridge right in front of you, and there is a save point in the church right behind you. Get close enough to have them fly away and then shoot them. If you're having trouble, try aiming right above one of them and slowly moving closer until it takes flight. Restart and do it again until you get 5. Very quick and easy!

Echoing every one else's guides to state where I got this achievement. Any place to get this is good to report, yeah?

When you finally escape Castle Dimitrescu and defeat Lady Dimitrescu's mutated form, you will escape out of a door and into a forked pathway. It has a save hut and a bridge you cannot cross. The one path has a locked door, which you need to shoot the padlock off, that continues the story. Break it and enter a cave path until you meet the Old Woman at an altar after a small swim. She will leave after a cutscene and the box on the table will have a key to leave the room. Once you are outside you will be in a place named Ceremony Site. A gigantic metal dome will be on the ground directly in front of you and behind it will have 3 crows on the ground. Shoot a random shot to make them scatter, then pull out your shotgun and shoot the crow to your left (as the flight path is longer than the other two) as it takes flight. Reload your checkpoint and you will be in the same area as soon as you left the prior room. You don't even have to walk a single step. Rinse and repeat 5 times.

I'd like to give a helpful nod to using the reload tip from alanp9 in their solution. It makes this achievement very easy.

If you had not killed any animal life prior to this you will also receive this achievement.

You should also get the "Hunter" Achievement if you don't have it yet. You will get that one after shooting your 1st Crow.

You will find 2 Crows after you open the Castle Gate. Make sure you SAVE your game in the cabin next to the gate. (Where we found the first Gate Piece).

Scare the Crows. Shoot both while they are flying.
🏆"HUNTER" UNLOCKED🏆
Press Start > Restart
It will load you back at the typewriter. Walk back to the gate, place the pieces, enter the gate, and Kill the Crows again. Rinse and repeat until you have Shot 5 Flying Crows.
🏆"SQUAWK SHOT" UNLOCKED🏆

Video Guide:

As Soon as you Open the Castle Gates you'll see 2 Crows Sitting in Front of the Bridge, Press to Equip your Handgun Press For Free Aim to Shoot 1 Shot in Front of them to Scare them away then Immediately Press to switch to your Shotgun & Shoot right above where there Flying. Press Choose Restart Rinse & Repeat until you Kill 5 Crows.


This Solution will Save you a Struggle & Time. The Shotgun is much Easier due to it having Spread Fire, Crows only take 1-2 Shots to Kill them with a Shotgun while close enough.

When out and about in the main village hub area (the area with the first goat statue collectable) go to each corner that surrounds this area and listen out for crow noises. When you hear them that means they have started flying away so start looking about in the sky for them. Its usually 3 crows every time, so just repeat untill achievement pops. (FYI the giant flock of crows cant be killed)

In this video guide I will show you how to hunt an animal during the story and
shoot down five flying crows in the story. You will get the hunter achievement when going for the crows. In the first section in the video is the first time I found crows, just make sure they are flying before shooting them. Now you can reload the last save and it should accumulate for the achievement. If you want to wait later for a bigger group you can wait until you are done with the castle and head back to the graveyard. Once there you will find four crows on the ground. Just approach them and shoot them while they fly. I didn't get it the first attempt so it will work if you reload. Once you get the fifth crow while flying the achievement will pop.
