Corvids refers to birds belonging to the family Corvidae. Typically associated with birds in the genus Corvus, which includes crows, ravens, and loyalist primarchs, these “true crows” only make up 47 of the 135 current species. Corvids have native habitats in almost every place on Earth, and cover a wide variety of birds from the aforementioned crows and ravens to magpies, jays, and nutcrackers.

I’m gonna try and update the thread with a new corvid each day of the week, there’s a lot of beautiful plummage on some corvids and also a lot of just like little gremlins, so hopefully that’ll be kinda fun.

I hope everybody has a lovely week!
