Thanks for the photos.

It looks like some kind of vulture to me as I'm picking up a bald head on #3. I don't think the wings are long enough for Condor, but I only know California here in AZ.

Looks like Common Raven all right.

This is an odd bird. Clearly not a raptor or vulture because of the bill. Superficially very like a molting raven, but what puzzles me are the yellow or at least light colored feet. Ravens and other black corvids should have jet black feet unless young birds have light feet, but I can find no reference to that. However, a young bird might not have completely grown its tail feathers yet, so that fits. Picture 3380 also shows a suggestion of a yellow gape mark, another feature of a young corvid. Best guess I have is young ravens with pale feet, but these birds probably would have thrown me too!

those are Common Ravens(which are common up there.) Birds are starting their summer molts. so . what you desribe as smaler Raven might have been Americna Crow which are up there too. Raven has pointed/diamond tail. Crow has sqaure tail. interesting photos!

These photos look quite like a Common/Chihuahuan Raven without a tail. Negative for Black Vulture as the wing tips have no white, also a side note, the wing shape isn't at all right. Moreover, it's a negative for Turkey Vulture for the bill is completely wrong, the underwing pattern is totally wrong, and the bird has feathering on its face. Also, the bird has a huge black conical bill, also pointing to a passerine.

Note that juvenile Turkey Vulture also has a gray face.
And an underwing pattern remarkably like this.

hI THERE, I would think Black Vulture if they were here on the Gulf Coast of Texas
look at the grey face.
