Unfortunately I didn’t manage to take satisfactory pictures of the Australian raven. The bird itself, its coloring and the accompanying contrasts were much of a challenge. Not to mention the fact that the photos were taken against the sun and I had only three brief encounters with the representative of this species. Thus a few documentary photographs, which create this gallery, were taken. An interesting thing to know is the fact that ravens would behave towards the wedge-tailed eagle in the same manner as our ravens behave towards white-tailed eagles or Eurasian magpies towards common buzzards. They would harry the eagle that was calmly sitting on a branch, flying up to it from behind every now and then. They would do that until the eagle flew away. Although the Australian raven is the biggest representative of this species in Australia, it is significantly smaller than our common raven. The weight of the Australian raven is about 600 grams, while our common raven can weigh a kilogram more. The Australian raven occurs exclusively in Australia.
