Common Ravens, male and female

Palo Alto, California

I originally thought that the one on the left was a crow, but based on Allan Ridley's comment below, I have changed the caption.

This is a great shot. I'm writing about ravens and was delighted to find this wonderful photo. Thanks!

Thanks for the information. Now that you point out the bills, I think you might be right.

Garrett, I disagree. Very nice shot but both are ravens. Look at bills. Male & female, fluffed & unfluffed, long angle & full frontal position suggests a stronger size difference. Allan

wonderful, i didn't know they could tolerate each other so close. the size difference shows up extremely well.
