Krow starts the battle off by grabbing an egg and slowly flying across the bottom of the screen, forcing the Kongs to jump over him. He will then drop the egg, making it bounce. The Kongs can jump on the egg to stop its bouncing, then grab it and use it to attack Krow. After doing this twice, eggs will start falling from the top of the screen. Most of them drop offscreen, but every fifth one will land, and the Kongs can pick it up and attack Krow again. Two more hits takes down Krow, rewarding the Kongs with a [[Banana Coin|Banana Bunch Coin]].
When [[Diddy Kong]] and [[Dixie Kong]] enter the boss level, Krow flies takes an egg from his nest, swoops at the [[Kong]]s to the opposite side, then drops the egg, which bounces a few times, at an increasingly lower height. The Kongs can jump on the egg to stop it from bouncing and then throw it at Krow. After taking a second hit, Krow changes his attack pattern to flying back and forth, causing eggs to fall from his nest. Every egg spins except the fifth one, which lands on the ground. After a fourth hit, Krow is defeated, leaving behind a [[Kremkoin]].

Krow's Nest is the boss level of Gangplank Galleon, the first world of Donkey Kong Land 2. The Kongs must defeat Krow to access the second world, Krem Cauldron. The name of the level is a pun on the observation point of a ship, the crow's nest, which Krow's Nest is for Gangplank Galleon.

Layout[edit]

The battle takes place on one of the ship's masts, with the top of a sail serving as a floor. Unlike in Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest, the nest does not appear on-screen and the battle only takes place on one screen. The boss fight is otherwise very similar to the one from Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest.

When Diddy Kong and Dixie Kong enter the boss level, Krow flies takes an egg from his nest, swoops at the Kongs to the opposite side, then drops the egg, which bounces a few times, at an increasingly lower height. The Kongs can jump on the egg to stop it from bouncing and then throw it at Krow. After taking a second hit, Krow changes his attack pattern to flying back and forth, causing eggs to fall from his nest. Every egg spins except the fifth one, which lands on the ground. After a fourth hit, Krow is defeated, leaving behind a Kremkoin.
