More Information

These two common ravens were independently admitted within a week of each other, and have formed a very strong bond. The two preen and feed one another and vocalize often, and have picked up a handful of noises from around the property to mimic together. While these two may be a bit old for glove work, they would make for a lovely static display pair.
