Spotted
The Torresian Crow is a large, entirely black crow found across northern and eastern Australia, New Guinea, and nearby islands. It is a highly intelligent and adaptable species, often thriving in human-modified landscapes.
Where to spot
Widespread across northern and eastern Australia, New Guinea, and associated islands, inhabiting a variety of open habitats, woodlands, farmlands, and urban areas.
How to spot
Look for a large, glossy black crow with a strong bill. Its calls are distinctive, often a harsh 'cark-cark-cark' or a drawn-out 'ah-ah-ahh'. Its pale eyes are a key identification feature if seen well.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Active throughout the day, particularly vocal and visible in the early mornings and late afternoons.
