Of the birds classified as perching birds or 'songbirds,' the Common Raven is the largest, the size of a hawk. Often, its deep croaking call will alert the observer to a pair of Common Ravens soaring high overhead. An intelligent and remarkably adaptable bird, living as both a scavenger and a predator, it can survive in all seasons in surroundings as diverse as hot deserts and the High Arctic tundra. Once driven from much of its eastern range, the raven is now making a comeback.
