The Slender-billed Crow is a medium-sized, all-black crow found across various islands of Indonesia and the Philippines. As its name suggests, it possesses a relatively slim and straight bill compared to other crows.
Where to spot
Widespread across numerous islands in Indonesia (e.g., Sulawesi, Lesser Sundas) and the Philippines, inhabiting forests, cultivated areas, and coastal zones.
How to spot
Look for a medium-sized, glossy black crow. Pay attention to its bill shape – it's notably more slender than many other Corvus species. Listen for its varied, often nasal calls.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Active throughout the day. Often seen foraging in open areas adjacent to forests or perched on prominent branches.
