Was not sure Raven or Crow, couldnt see the tail feathers.

[Rockinthecasbah]

its a crow, i used to have problems with the two until i started working in an area where they have both present all the time .
for everyone else out there
Ravens have pointed wings, while crows have a more blunt and splayed wing tip.
Crows have a fan-shaped tail (squared-off), while raven tails are long and wege-shaped.
Besides having a bigger, more powerful bill, a raven's bill is curved, while a crow has a more-or-less flat bill. Additionally, atop a raven's bill is a tuft of hairs absent on crows.


heres the link to the article, it wasn't a trained crow http://www.sciencemag.org/feature/data/crow/
