[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
In this location the corvus corone ave aquired the capacity to be faster to take the bred than guls or ducks. I've spend about 1 hour to try to cath them.
The it was at the end of the day an the light was quite low.

I've use the flash to force 1/200 at F8, F8 because is the better aperture for the sigma 70-300

Corvus corone corone


Common and widespread resident. In north-west Scotland and most of Ireland is replaced with the distinctive grey and black form, Hooded Crow. The two races interbreed where they meet.


Found in almost all kinds of habitat from remote mountains to city centres.


Most often confused with Rook, but crows have a thicker blunter bill, smoother plumage (Rooks look ragged in comparison) and lacks adult Rook's bare white face patch. Nests alone, unlike communal nesting of Rooks.


47 cm (18½")
