Personally, I've been thinking for a loooong while that Qrow's Semblance has to do with literal crows, like maybe he can send out crows he makes out of his Aura, and he can tell what's going on wherever they are.

I mean, in Burning the Candle, right after he saves Ruby and Yang, you hear a sound of flapping wings, and apparently, in the Director's Commentary, they said that sound was important.

And then we have the crow sightings:

It makes sense that his crows would be keeping an eye on Ruby and Yang, since they're his nieces, and there was a crow in the Black Trailer because he was keeping an eye on the White Fang. We now know that the Black Trailer takes place the morning after Cinder visited Adam for the first time.

The next time we see a crow is in It's Brawl in the Family, when Qrow finds Winter and starts taunting her.
