Common Raven
Corvus corax

Field Notes
Description:
Not just large but massive, with a thick neck, shaggy throat feathers, and a Bowie knife of a beak. In flight, ravens have long, wedge-shaped tails. They're more slender than crows, with longer, narrower wings, and longer, thinner “fingers” at the wingtips.
Common Ravens are entirely black, right down to the legs, eyes, and beak.
Habitat:
This fellow and several of his buddies showed up when we stopped for a picnic lunch in the park.
