American Crow
Colour Group: black
Beak Shape: long and stout
Size Comparison: Crow
The all black American Crow (or common crow) can be easily spotted in backyards due to its large size and abundance in the urban areas. Although its feathers can have a slight purplish-black appearance in strong sunlight, they often appear coal-black. Even the feet and bill are black. An uncommon variance in some crows is the development of white wing feathers. While white winged crows are not very common ...

crow alarm call
The Crow Corvus spp.
Often heard when in large groups or as a warning to others that a predator is near, this call always occurs in sets of three.
The crow belongs to the Family Corvidae which includes jays, crows and ravens. They share forward facing bristles above their nostrils. Generally members of this family are noisy, gregarious birds who successfully steal food from much larger animals.
In the Pacific Northwest, there are two species or types of crows. The smaller o ...

Blackbirds like small priests walked in the silent fields.
-- Niall Williams --
The Corvids - crows, ravens, jays, magpies and jackdaws, are the Einsteins of the bird family; no other birds even come close to matching their intelligence. Crows live in close knit family groups. They communicate -- some 23 distinct patterns of caws have been interpreted -- and they cooperate wit ...

Hear a story about the common raven.
Hear a common raven.
adapted from The Birds of Texas
by John L. Tveten
The raven has been the object of countless myths and legends around the world. Odin, the supreme deity of Norse mythology, sent out a pair of ravens at sunrise every day, and at noon they would return to perch on his shoulders and tell him what they had learned. Ravens were sent to sustain the prophet Elijah in the desert, and Native American peoples in the Pacific Northwe ...

A Gathering of Crows
One crow for sorrow,
Two crows for joy,
Three crows for a girl,
Four for a boy,
Five crows for silver,
Six crows for gold,
Seven crows for a secret never to be told.
I did not get this poem from the counting crows song. I didn't even hear that song until a couple of years after I read this poem in the graphic novel The Crow. It has existed since long before that book.
Corvus is part of the crows' scientific name. It is actually latin for raven, but i have found ...

The Corvidae - Crows and Their Relatives
The family Corvidae comprises a medium sized group of passerine (perching) birds. It is a reasonably well known family, however in Sibley and Monroe's new phylogeny, many other traditional families have been incorporated into the family Corvidae giving it a huge and unwieldy 649 species. Here however I have stayed with the traditional Howard and Moore classification of the family and will treat the other families independently ...

There hasn't been as much study done within the corvidae family as in some others, since the birds are common and (with a few exceptions) don't usually end up on endangered species lists. However, scientists are discovering that crows and ravens aren't so 'common' after all, and may be among the most intelligent of birds, which has led to a greater interest in them than in past years.
Here's a few facts about various members of the family, and some links to studies and articles highlighti ...
