Crows are members of the corvid family, a group of highly capable birds that also includes ravens, jays, and magpies. Many crows have mostly black plumage, as reflected in the collection's black-crow examples. They are adaptable and commonly live in varied habitats, including woodlands, farmland, and towns. Their flexible, omnivorous diet can include insects, seeds, fruit, small animals, and scraps. Crows are known for problem-solving and for learning from experience; they also communicate with a varied range of calls and often gather in social groups. The examples focus on crows shown from different angles, connecting the collection through the bird's recognizable form rather than through different species or habitats.</description_full
