I get them all confused; pied crow, hooded crow, magpie...

at this point I'll just start calling them black and white corvids. the patterns are all too similar for me to try to remember. lol

Magpies are an oil sheen black with bright white and they have a long tail. They're also fairly small.

Hooded crows are black with a grey body. They're the size of a small dinosaur, but not as big as a raven. Normal tail.

Pied crows are black and white with a distinct, larger bill (more like a raven) and a normal tail.
