One of the few birds found exclusively in the United States, the Fish Crow is a common bird of the southeastern coast. It has been expanding its range inland and up river valleys, using urban areas in its spread. It is very similar to its more familiar relative the American Crow, and can be distinguished reliably only by voice.
