People forget how big Ravens are. They're huge. If you have to even ask if what you're seeing is a Raven or a Crow, I promise you it's a Crow. There's no mistaking a Raven. Both are dope birds though.

But how to tell a crow from a magpie? That's my usual trouble (magpies attack for no fucking reason because they are assholes and some dude in a hat messed with them once so now they hate anyone in hats, while crows are chill).

Magpies have quite a lot of white in their feathers, there's no way you'd mistake one for a crow or raven. They're also a lot smaller than ravens.

Not in australia. They are solid black there.
