Well, they are black...

I've ALWAYS been so fascinated, by the Corvid species, especially Common Raven's. After being in the avian field, for 20yrs now. I can honestly say, there isn't many other birds out there, that intrigue me as much as they do. I saw this program when it first aired, and i must say, it gives VERY good "insight" into these beautiful yet powerful birds lives.

the raven is funny. and cute. x3

[DAVZEE3]

If man kind ever discovers the secrets to creating a time machine to go back to the beginning of the world, likened to when we sent a monkey as the first in space may I suggest we send a raven or two first.

[chengda85]

wtf the raven must be cloaked the eagle could not see it!

[sabbathfreak666]

can anyone please find where we can watch this show online? reply if u know

[b4ihang]

Hello, I would also like to see this, I've been waiting for it to turn up one of these days, but they will never play it, because so-called "Public Television" has instead become like 'private viewing' as they never air this or many other programs which they claim to air. No, they only want to sell you DVDs, yet I think they still take government funding on top of the virtual extortion of their fundraisers--correct me if I'm wrong.

[bluegama500]

whats the difference between and raven and a crow?are they the same bird?and are the the same smart,cuz i have crows living across the road and they sometimes steal my dogs food by tricking it

[LadyRavenEyes]

ravens are bigger

[bluegama500]

oooooh,but are they smarter

[lejink]

ravens have a similar call, only its a lot deeper and throaty.

[bluegama500]

oh,but are they smarter?

[lejink]

most likely, larger brain.

iv seen crows do some pretty surprising things before. i only ever see ravens when i go snowboarding. think they prefer the colder temps.

there are some great experiments on youtube involving crows, worth checking out.

[bluegama500]

k thanx,anyway i think ravens are pretty smart too,they outsmart my dogs to steal their bones XD.while he is chewing on a big bone the raven swoops down picks up a little bone and "throws " it then my dog goes after than little bone while the raven swoops over and gets the big bone and flys away with it

[catkin3]

I thought the kea of New Zealand was the most intelligent bird??

[Sanctum1000]

raben sind die interliegendesten vögel wenn nicht so gar der tiere ein steht fest ein rabe ist schlauer alls ein affe das würde bewiesen!!!!!!!!!!!!

[sabbathfreak666]

hi does anybody have this video?please upload it if available

[afffred]

ravens are the most intelligent birds (people tend to think parrots are but thats not true)

[xXAkridXx]

People think Owls are smart also.

[Tikmondo]

The Kea Parrots of NZ might challenge raven for that title. They are not common tho. check it out: youtube . com/watch?v=oAhzmULgoqI&featur­e=related

[beastinblack]

@afffred possibly but parrots are very personable, personally I would say they are equal

[RavenMaster1313]

@afffred

Yup! Smarter than dogs!!

I plan on getting a mating pair sometime in the future =)

[thickdarkbeer]

dude fisherman lacks something sir raven seems to have also..ha that was awesome

[tomtalker2000]

Plus...Another noteworthy piece here, is just how STRONG a Raven's beak is. This adult Bald Eagle, is around 2 to 3 times the size and weight of this adult Raven, yet it still manages to pull this majestic bird. Never under estimate, the power of a Crow or Raven's beak power. Where they lack talons, like Hawks & Eagles have, the make up for in beak power. I've seen my own backyard Crow's down chipmunks & SQUIRRELS before!!! A few "death blows" from there beaks, and its lights out for there prey.

[tomtalker2000]

For starters, Raven's are far from "little". There about 27in in length, with a 4ft wingspan, making them MUCH larger, then there Crow cousins we see in our backyards. However....Not much compares in size, to an Eagle anyway, depending on the species of Eagle that is. One thing about Raven's, is that they can match a Hawk or Eagle in flight, without much effort. They can soar like a Hawk or Eagle, tumble in mid-air like they do, among other aerial displays. And are the largest Songbirds, we have

at 0:11, fire emblem characters!:)

[kumiho92]

lol, I was thinking the same thing. This looks like Naesala bothering Tibarn again.

[hellstoilet]

Dude eagle what's wrong with you? Peck at that annoying little thing.

[DENDROID2]

Dude Eagle lacks something Sir Raven seems to have...

[ladyraven30]

I've always known how intelligent they are. They're beauty is absolutely amazing! They're feathers are so black and shiny, it's almost magical!

[moolikeacow2]

Well, that eagle wasn't too bright. It could have just flown off with its kill.

[only1duk]

haha you must be chicken oriental! the narrator said raven more than 5 times

[moolikeacow2]

Dude, are you retarded? The raven stole the EAGLE's kill. Pay attention moron.

[dixievfd55]

@moolikeacow2 That takes cojones.
