About These Birds

American Crow

The American crow is one of North America's most familiar and intelligent birds. Research has shown they can recognize individual human faces and communicate perceived threats to other crows. They form large winter roosts of up to hundreds of thousands of individuals in some cities.

Banggai Crow

The Banggai Crow is a Critically Endangered corvid of the family Corvidae found only on Peleng Island in Indonesia. Weighing about 175g with a wingspan of 40.2cm, it is a large all-black crow restricted to one of the world's smallest ranges for any corvid. Deforestation and hunting have reduced its population to critically low numbers.
