The House Crow stands out with its grey neck and belly, contrasting its otherwise black feathers. With a size of around 16 inches, this crow species is on the smaller side. While primarily recognized in India, it has adapted to diverse regions, including Africa, Europe, and other parts of Asia.

A true omnivore, the House Crow consumes a range of diets from plant-based materials to various types of meat, often scavenging around human population centers.
