CROW, ROOK or RAVEN?
These three large corvidae birds are extremely similar in their appearance, especially from afar, so here are a few ways to tell the difference:
CROW

β’ Tends to roam in large groups (murders)
β’ Smooth plumage, particularly around head and throat
β’ Tail feathers even in length, forming a fan shape
ROOK
β’ Large pale, straight beak with no feathering
β’ Roams and lives in large rookeries
β’ Long wings that narrow towards the body
β’ Feathery trousers
RAVEN
β’ Large, rounded black beak with distinct bill feathers
β’ Seen alone or with their mate only
β’ Shaggy plumage around the head, throat and breast
β’ Long, diamond shaped tail
