The Mariana Crow is a critically endangered species of crow endemic to the Mariana Islands in Micronesia. It is an all-black corvid with a slender bill, facing severe population declines.
Where to spot
Critically endangered and restricted to the islands of Rota and Guam (where it is extinct in the wild) in the Mariana Islands, primarily inhabiting limestone forests.
How to spot
Observing this crow is extremely difficult due to its critically low numbers. Focus on remnant limestone forests on Rota. Look for an all-black crow with a relatively slender bill. Listen for its distinctive calls, which are quite different from other crows.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Active during daylight hours. Due to its rarity, any observation is valuable. Early morning is often ideal for bird activity.
