It's a Northern / Common Raven. The length of the feathering on the top of the beak is far greater than you would get on an American Crow - the only other species it could be in that area -, the shape of the tail - very rounded at the tip with noticably short outer feathers - would fit with the rather triangular tip of Raven, unlike the squarer tip of Crow and the length of the wing point compared to the tip of the tail.

Chris
