Hey Mr. Doug:
Do you give us clues, if so>>>What about it's Habitat and Range?

Hey Doug, we have two Ravens that "live" on my campus here at work. They're huge!!! What do you know about them? They kind of scare me, LOL!

COMMON RAVEN

Hi Telaya...

Don't let ravens scare you...(OK...I admit they can look a bit scary...but you have no reason to fear them.)

They're amazing birds...and one of the smartest animals on the planet...(REALLY). Some researchers are starting to think that they are as smart as some apes. (They can count up to 10, can be taught to mimic human voices, can tell whether a human has a gun or a rake, etc, etc.)

OK...the below raven is trying to break into a car......but........you have nothing to fear........TRUST ME!!!

See now why did you go and show that picture of the raven and the car??? I'm really skerred now!!!!! I have actually seen these birds taking out the window trim on our buildings to build a nest!! They have been here for about 3 years.

What do they eat?
