Hi, this is from Bill Baggs, Key Biscayne, Florida.
Is it American Crow (Corvus brachyrhynchos)?
Thanks!

Either American Crow or Fish Crow. I can't tell them apart visually, easiest to tell them apart by voice.

So, I understand that it's not possible to identify between both crows just by photo and it is necessary to listen to them, right? Thanks!!

Yes, correct :t:

It can be possible to tell them apart without calls if they are right next to each other so you can compare the size accurately, but that doesn't work with singles!

Almost certainly a Fish Crow at key Biscayne. American Crows are rare on the immediate coast of in south Florida along the Atlantic.
