Same!! 🥺 I have a bunch that live by me, but they have a far enough range so I don’t see them every day and can’t seem to get their attention. Any corvid experts here that can give me some tips?
What is the difference between a raven and a crow? One major difference is that ravens have 3 pinion feathers on each wing, whereas crows only have two.
TBF even crows are a lot bigger than what I always thought crows were. I’ve seen them up close since I’ve been feeding my local murder peanuts, and these guys are the size of roaster chickens.
This is how it was explained to me by a very elderly, birdwatching family member… If you ever go “whoa, that’s a really big crow,” you’re probably wrong
The photo is of a raven, not a crow. That said, exchanges of this sort with corvids has always been a bucket list item of mine.

So its really just a difference of a pinion
Goddamnit. Sitting here ready to subscribe to crow facts and you got me with a freakin pinion joke.
Well done.
Apparently, ravens are so huge that if you see one you will not be in doubt that it can’t be a crow. At least that’s what I’ve been told.
Raven at the Tower of London. They are big, with massive beaks.

Yup. The few I met at Yellowstone were approaching small eagle size.
Yup. They also have a way bigger beak and “scruffier” looking feathers, which is what I noticed in the pic. I love birds.
That sounds rippin
