Day 308: Common Raven

I really wish I had a better photo of a Common Raven, but unfortunately, this is all I have for now. You can usually tell a Raven by its deep, throaty croak of a call, which sounds different than the everyday crow call. Ravens are also bigger than Crows, have a larger beak, shaggy feathers around the throat and beak, and a wedge-shaped tail. They are also supposedly very smart. Although ravens are almost always black, there do exist exceptionally rare white ravens (and not just in Game of Thrones)!
