This is one that always gets me! I know a Raven is bigger but can never decide if its big enough for a raven haha. So if anyone can help with this that would be great.

Thanks
Nick

Although often not well visible (distance), this aspect is important for Raven: two-thirds of the mandible are feathered; if less, no Raven! There is also more leg-covering, even more difficult to see! Crows can be quite different in size, due to sex and age. Of course, sound is always decisive.
