Raven?

[Maggie28]

It was very big. Made a different sound to a crow. There was two of them.

looks like a raven to me, Maggie!

[Maggie28]

I hope so. Be my first ones since birding

They were massive. And thatsound they made was just unbelievably loud and different from Crows.

You can tell by that bill Maggie that they are Ravens. Their call is a deep croaking and they are around the same size as a Buzzard.

Come to think of it I can't recall ever having seen a Raven. Looking at the coverage maps on RSPB website and Wiki they are not shown as being present in the Midlands or South/S.East. I wonder if the Ravens at the Tower of London feel lonely

I was just wanting to double check as my ID's as you know are hopeless, but I thought I couldn't be wrong this time........Or could I?

Whoo Hoo, First Ravens.
