A minaret

Bandra birds

A crow that is generally larger than the House Crow, with a relatively long daggerlike bill that is curved on the top. Entirely black with a variable amount of glossiness, they are primarily scavengers that feed on carrion, leftover food from humans, and also steal food from other birds. Their call is more raucous and harsher than the House Crow.
