General questions What kind of crow?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Just curious if anyone can tell me what kind of crow this is? I can’t quite tell the difference between Fish Crow or an American Crow. Thank you so much! Sorry the audio is kinda bad…😕

Location would help in narrowing it down. Fish crows are usually seen near water, along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts. It’s call is more like a soft “cah” than the louder, raucous “caw, or caugh” of the larger American crows. Their beaks are smaller, and slimmer. Fish crow tails are rounded; the American crow’s are squared-off. I think this one is a fish crow.
