The Cuban Crow is a large, entirely glossy black icterid, robustly built with a heavy bill and a relatively long tail. It is endemic to Cuba and somewhat similar in appearance to true crows, though unrelated.
Where to spot
Endemic to Cuba. Found in a variety of wooded habitats, including dry and humid forests, pine forests, and plantations.
How to spot
Look for its large, entirely glossy black plumage and heavy bill. Listen intently for its unique and diverse vocalizations, which are very different from other blackbirds and true crows.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Best observed during early mornings or late afternoons when foraging activity is high.
Known for its unusual and complex vocalizations, which include gurgling, rattling, and even mimicked sounds, distinct from typical crow caws.
