The Large-billed Crow is a highly adaptable and widespread species found across much of Asia, characterized by its robust build and powerful, deep bill. It exhibits significant regional variation in size and voice.
Where to spot
Widespread across a vast range from East Asia (Japan, China, Korea) through Southeast Asia, South Asia, and parts of Central Asia, inhabiting diverse habitats from dense forests to urban centers.
How to spot
Look for a large, entirely black crow with a notably heavy bill. Its vocalizations vary significantly by region, but are generally deep and harsh 'caw-caw'. Often seen in pairs or small groups, foraging on the ground or perching high in trees.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Active throughout the day, particularly conspicuous in urban areas at dawn and dusk when congregating in roosts.
