Presented by: Stella Miller

The Corvidae, commonly known as the Crow family,  includes crows, ravens, rooks, magpies, jackdaws, jays, treepies, choughs, and nutcrackers.  There are approximately 135 species worldwide, including the largest member, the Common Raven.

Corvids are known for their remarkable intelligence and are considered among the most cognitively advanced birds studied to date. Their problem-solving abilities, complex social behaviors, and impressive adaptions have fascinated scientist and bird enthusiasts alike.

In this program, Stella Miller will explore the corvid family, as a whole, focusing on the extraordinary adaptions and intelligence that have helped these birds thrive around the world.  Stella will include accounts of the corvids that call New York home.
