This is an article about a bird you can see around here in our community. It is the raven. The raven is an all black bird. The size of a raven is pretty big, 50-55 centimeters. The shape of a raven is stocky and roundish. These birds wings are narrow with a wingspan of 116-118 centimeters. It eats fruit, insects, small animals, and dead animals. One cool fact about the raven is it can do flips in midair. Some other cool facts about the raven are it is thought to be one of the smartest birds. My favorite fact about the raven is it can mimic people and "talk." You maybe will hear one their call is "rronk."
