This system of communication is fascinates to me. I observed, denial and confirmation in same sentence. Then they go back and forth to confirm. And it all happens in few seconds. Over and over again.
I love the way she’s making the other (male) raven wait for a reply, that’s a giveaway that it’s a female bird! The tones and number of calls is interesting too.
I am always surprised how different your North American Ravens sound to ours. They are the same species but if I heard it I would not recognise that sound as a Ravens Call. Nice close up and audio 👍
I just watched your video again. Great filming but you have the same problem we have. The Dynamic range of your camera just kills it, like it does with all our videos. I love my Sony camcorder but heck, it just hurts when I get the best footage ever...and it doesn't show the detail in the shadows or the highlights l@@lookingupwithnathan9647
Sometimes it’s part of a display, or to communicate something (like a mating call for instance). In this case, I don’t think it’s a display as much as he’s just moving his body as he calls. Thanks for watching!
Looks like making this sounds require some physical efford to his diaphragm, resulting in shaking his entire body's muscles structure, which explains the tail swagging.
Very nice and steady shooting. It seems like your camera is mounted on a good tripod. Good work setting this up. The raven appears to be saying, “ never more “ ( Edgar Allan Poe…” thus spoke the raven, never more “)
Thank you! I did shoot this on a tripod, and it’s a very good one. And tbh I wouldn’t be shocked if that’s exactly what he’s saying lol. Thanks for checking it out!
From what I can find there ARE Ravens in Maryland so by extension there should be in Prince George’s county! In case you are in George’s county looking for ravens and need help identifying; Ravens are huge birds, around the size of red tailed hawks. They have large heavy beaks and noticeable throat hackles (beard like feathers on their throat). They soar a lot (similar to a lot of raptors) but will also flap in a very fluid motion through the air. They have diamond shaped tail feathers as well. You can also identify them by their calls like the one you hear in the video. Thanks for checking out the video, hope this helps!
@lookingupwithnathan9647 I saw one once when I was in they backyard I thought was a crow because we have a lot of crows in my area however the bird was soaring then it tucked its wings and dove it did that three times so it was a raven right
@@GOJIEDITZZ555 Love that! We are feeding some of our local ravens and I’m hoping we can eventually befriend them. Corvids can be the best of friends if you can befriend them!
An absolutely AWESOME & BEAUTIFUL Raven.

Raven calls the universe into being. It's all in his voice.
🎶 raven has spoken
He's trying to get a little party started lol

Translation- 'come here.' Other raven answers, ' no , you come here', etc, etc

I’ve heard this is a female call before but wasn’t sure! Thank you for the fun info and thanks for checking it out!

Why do birds moving their tails when making sounds?
Sometimes it’s part of a display, or to communicate something (like a mating call for instance). In this case, I don’t think it’s a display as much as he’s just moving his body as he calls. Thanks for watching!
because screaming that loud is physically quite intense
Looks like making this sounds require some physical efford to his diaphragm, resulting in shaking his entire body's muscles structure, which explains the tail swagging.
@@viniciusbernardo2112Fun fact: birds have no diaphragm
@@catpoke9557 you're right, thanks for clearing this.
Very nice video.

@@GOJIEDITZZ555 100% a Raven! Only ravens pull off those Ariel acrobatics, crows don’t
@lookingupwithnathan9647 I like crows and ravens. I actually made relationship with a crow at a nature center her name Neyo
