The Beauty of Corvids

As much as I 💕 watching corvids, I don't know much about them. What is the easiest way (from a distance) to tell if I'm looking at a crow or a raven?
I was curious so I looked at some comparison pictures of Crow and Raven beaks and they are so close that I don't think I could tell them apart at a glance, really. I think I'll stick to, "Ravens are big and fluffy."

A photoI took with my phone today of a pair of jackdaws.

Jackdaws are a resident and very common bird in the UK but apparently not in the USA so I thought you might like to see the photos, even though not good quality - as ever😁. They are the smallest of crows in the UK with a black head and silvery grey nape.
