    Ravens are much larger and very black in color, crows are medium or much smaller than ravens.
    The raven is more the size of a hawk, while a crow is closer to the size of a pegeon. Also, the raven is blacker, and its tail feathers are pointed into a triangle, whereas the tail feathers of a crow are curved like a seashell. Ravens live a lot longer, with individuals at the Tower of London living for as long as 40 years (normally in the WILD, they'll live for 10-15 years); crows live for about 8 years. Ravens tend to favor wild, uninhabited areas, whereas crows are attracted to hunans and buildings in the city.
    Ummmmm... the spelling? ;)
