The common raven, also known as the Northern raven, is a large all black passerine bird. Found across the Northern Hemisphere.
A mature raven between 21 to 26″ long, with a wingspan of 45 to 51″. The bill is large and slightly curved, with a culmen length of 2.2 to 3.3 in.
The common raven is the most widely distributed of all corvids. It is one of the two largest corvids, alongside the thick-billed raven, and is possibly the heaviest passerine bird; at maturity, the common raven averages 25 inches in length and 2.6 pounds in mass. They can live up to 21 years in the wild.
They have coexisted with humans for thousands of years and in some areas have been so numerous that people have regarded them as pests.
Part of their success as a species is due to their omnivorous diet; they are extremely versatile and opportunistic in finding sources of nutrition, feeding on carrion, insects, cereal grains, berries, fruit, small animals, nesting birds, and food waste.
