Tamaulipas Crow (Corvus imparatus)

The Tamaulipas Crow, distinctively smaller than the average crow, measures around 15 inches long. Exhibiting a glossy black body and slender bill, these crows stand out for their unique charcoal-grey eyes, deviating from the usual dark eyes of standard crows.

This type of crow inhabits the Northeastern plains of Mexico and southernmost Texas. Unlike other bird relatives, they have a low, croaking call, unlike the harsh caw that most crows are known for.
