White-necked Raven (Corvus albicollis)


Name: White-necked Raven (Corvus albicollis)

Kingdom:Animalia
Phylum:Chordata
Class:Aves

Observation: I was intrigued by this bird because of it's really dark black feathers and that one bright white spot on it's neck.  I can't believe that the black is so black and the white is so white.  I took this picture as the wildlife refuge and the colors of the bird reminde of a penguin but obviously this bird and the penguin vastly differ in size and overall appearance (excluding the color which is the similarity).
