Corvids refers to birds belonging to the family Corvidae. Typically associated with birds in the genus Corvus, which includes crows, ravens, and loyalist primarchs, these "true crows" only make up 47 of the 135 current species. Corvids have native habitats in almost every place on Earth, and cover a wide variety of birds from the aforementioned crows and ravens to magpies, jays, and nutcrackers.
I'm gonna try and update the thread with a new corvid each day of the week, there's a lot of beautiful plummage on some corvids and also a lot of just like little gremlins, so hopefully that'll be kinda fun.
I hope everybody has a lovely week!

I remember reading in high school this piece of writing by an ostensibly cis women about as a teenager wishing she had had a dark trauma in her past to explain neatly why she felt her normal life was so awful.And I found it so deeply resonating. Because that was me, all the time. And in hindsight it was yeah because I was trans. And neurodivergent. And my dad was abusive.
And then I did get groomed and assaulted and didn't quite even realise because I thought I was a boy and my abuser was a woman. But like I had all those traumatised feeling before that happened.
Any chance u remember what the piece was? Feel like we might resonate w it too
Sadly I think the chance of my finding it are slim, my English teacher just gave a photocopied sheet to a dysphoric teenager like 20 years ago. But if I do ever find it I will post it.
Thats ok, ty!
