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.
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.
The guy that told me this lives close by, and we have plenty of crows here. His way of saying it made it clear that the "chicken-sized" crows we have around here are small compared to a raven.
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
Yup. The few I met at Yellowstone were approaching small eagle size.
Raven at the Tower of London. They are big, with massive beaks.
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
True in Europe and the US, but not everywhere. Corvids are a hugely successful animal class, and there are related species all over the world locally called crows and ravens. Some places the local species called ravens are bigger. Other places the local species called crows are bigger.
