Own every animal of the family Corvidae.
Crows, ravens and magpies are among the most intelligent birds. They solve problems and some use tools. Many hide food to find it again later. The family spans almost the whole planet. Their brain is large for their body size. They are omnivores and highly adaptable.
The start of their anecdote. The album's other cards are for you to discover in the game.
Corvidae
Pyrrhocorax graculus · Least concern
The Alpine chough may nest at a higher altitude than any other bird, and its eggs are adapted to the thin air, taking up oxygen better and losing less water. Glossy black with a yellow bill and red legs, it readily approaches tourist sites in search of extra food.

Corvidae
Corvus brachyrhynchos · Least concern
Its brain is as heavy for its body as ours. Some cultures linked it with death and bad luck because it sometimes eats carrion. Native American and some Gaelic traditions saw it as a lucky bird for its intelligence.

Corvidae
Cyanopica cyanus · Least concern
Azure-blue wings and tail, a glossy black cap: the azure-winged magpie looks like a slimmer Eurasian magpie, and its tail alone is 16 to 20 cm long. Pairs whose chicks hatch on different days, creating a pecking order by size in the nest, lay more eggs and raise more young.
