| We examined the dead crow after school. | This crow is big, isn't it? The wingspsan is about 80cm(30inches). The dead crow is on the 30cm(12inches)-square concrete plste. He's black.This black color is very beautiful. | He has a big bill, which is about 6cm in length. I assume that crow is a young bird because the collor is still pink at the bottom of his bill. Also, I can say the crow is still young because his forehead doesn't stand out.Generally Hashibuto crow's horehead is standing -out. | Sometimes he scratches people by claws. He sometimes attack pigeon by these claws and eat it. He has big legs! |
We buried him after this observation. Please sleep well, Mr. Crow!
