- Caught this Australian Little Raven making creaking sounds, had to laugh at the way the Raven fluffs its head feathers and ruffles its throat hackles as it makes the sound.

It's called vocal fry and it's supposed to be annoying, but in his case it's endearing. 😂
We love our Ravens. They are real characters.
Raven looking at his own reflection, "Dang I'm good look'n."
😊❤
This is delightful! The pool is perfect, being not too deep and having the stones placed in a position to help small animals get in and out. Notice that all birds test the depth carefully because if they get stuck in water they get waterlogged and can't fly until they dry out. It's a lovely video and the sounds the Raven makes are funny and fascinating!
Thanks Julie
Very chatty little fellow, ain't he? ❤
Sure is... i have another video where its going right off "arking" and carrying on, thanks for watching : )
Singing in his bath
Just needs a glass of wine and a few candles 😀 thanks for watching 😉
It's not enough that they are beautiful and get to fly with fantastic wings, they also get to make way cool sounds too! I'm so jealous!
Yeah, you're so right. They are always surprising me with their behaviours, and the more I get to know them, the greater the respect I have. Thanks for watching 😃👍
What a sweet talker.❤️
Cheers Judy, gave her an old mandarin this morning, the skin was swiftly removed and she flew off with the rest. Thanks for watching : )
I love it that the raven is making these sounds simply for his own amusement. Well, on second thought, maybe the lady ravens find this incredibly sexy and hot. In any case, they're a lot of fun to watch these inventive creatures. Thanks from Vermont.
Yeah their pretty cool birds. If I remember correctly, another Raven is mumbling away in the tree above the water trough. I've heard them making this noise in flight as well. Thanks for watching 👍
The video is simple and to the point while the presentation is wonderfully eye catching. And on top of all that, the bird does in fact make funny noises.
Thanks for the kind words and for watching, makes it all worthwile : )
He's so happy! What a beautiful raven! 💗
Australian ravens seem to more closely resemble crows rather than ravens from other countries. Maybe I'm missing something though.
Their very similar, but in Aus they are classified Ravens, we do have a crow, the torresion crow, its larger and has a bulbous top beak. Cheers Daniel
I've never heard these birds referred to as a raven ever.. Always called a Crow
Idk, what's a jackdaw? Is it a raven, crow or bluejay? Corvids are corvids and have unique personalities; to me this bird should've had a unique name.
Ravens are Corvids, the Crow family.
So a Raven is a Crow but a Crow is not a Raven. -a Raven is of the Crow'
In many cultures and tribes the names are interchangeable as well to add to the confusion when translating ..stuff.
@@CamelotsmoonJackdaws, rooks, crows and ravens are all in the genus corvus.
He is so sweet and seems happy 🥰🥰🥰
3 species of Ravens in Australia, Forest Raven, Australian Raven and small Raven and they all have the throat hackles. Then there are also several crow species.
Spot on 😀👍
To listen to this raven's vocalisations is fascinating and so enjoyable to hear this living creature's language.
I saw the female bird fly past last week making this creaking sound. I never heard them do it in flight before. Thanks for watching 🙂
An incredibly intelligent bird possibly mimicking other birds. It can get a bit noisy at times. The cockatoos and magpies have loud cries as well.
they sound like autotuned zip ties 😂 what fascinating creatures!
He's talking to his reflection, lol.
I've noticed that Ravens across the world have different accents. I've listened to the caws of ravens from America, Britain, and Australia and they each have accents.
They have different dialects as in American crow would sound different from each other in close geographical areas. San Francisco, CA crows and ravens sound different from each other in different parts of SF.
@@robertalee7106 that's so interesting
American crow = "Cawww!"
Aussie crow = "Yea nah yea nah nah yea, like...caw, mate."
@@ThisHandleFeatureIsStupid lmao 🤣
One near me (California high desert) vocalizes "hello" from a tree. It's kinda creepy at night. I give them peanuts. But they still won't get closer than 10 ft.
Oh at last I found a video with the familiar creaking! That’s the way my front yard crows/ravens and I communicate before I feed them chicken or cat biscuits and they dip their beaks into my bird bath presumably to drink or clean themselves. I love them!! But I wonder where they go when they disappear for a few days 🤔
Hi Susan, they may be nesting or building a nest at the moment, also young ravens may congregate in flocks to find a mate or expliot a food source, thanks for watching. Cheers
Rearing a fledgeling Raven. He is incredible . Blessed to have him in our lives. Smart Happy Bird!
I looked up yesterday and it was a raven that almost sounded like a goose! (Millcreek, UT)
I think the Raven sounds like Bob Hawke. These birds can be so calming with their calls but so ruthless with their actions.
Spot on John, Does sound like Bob Hawke, my partner said the same. As for the Ravens yes "they are ruthless", stealing eggs and baby birds, but you have to admire they're resilience and ability to survive in a harsh environment. Cheers John
😂Yes it does sound like Bob Hawke. Good observation.
@@ronhaines7833 If that's what it takes to feed your family, then you do it.
Just lovely...lol Your Australian ravens, crows and magpies are such striking and gorgeous birds!
And Sulphur Crested Cockatoos, the biggest personalities of them all!
Really funny voice. Really enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing
Happy you liked it, Thanks for watching 😀👍
This is my new favourite podcast
when it was in the water it sounded like it MA... MA... MA LOOK
I often think they're calling out for... Mark... Mark... Maaarrrrk. Cheers Douglas
Beautiful bird! Her eyes are stunning.
Beautiful
It has a good point.
Love the “Comical” in the title. Mocking this poor bird’s shower singing.
This just showed up for me, love it, what a great video, love the sounds, beautiful bird. So happy to find the perfect water pond.
So glad you liked it, the Raven is a wonderful bird, i have others on my profile page, thanks for watching : )
Pretty eyes. 🖤
Omg they resemble Grackels...a lot!
Apart from the odd call to other ravens, is there a reason for his chattering, or does he just like his own voice? He’s a beauty! ❤
Yes, we have to wonder... there is another Raven in the tree above that it could be talking to it, you can hear it in the background... they make the same noise when sitting on the power pole and in the trees, I've even heard them doing it in flight. Another watcher said it's called "vocal fry" and they do it to be annoying? but i'm not that sure it's the reason, me thinks it's more about being contented. Ravens are complex creatures. Cheers Deb 👍
@@ronhaines7833 thanks for your interesting reply. I’ve noticed Magpies here in the UK are often chattering away all to themselves, it’s quite comical. It’s nice to know that, with all the time spent food gathering, that they have can have some relaxing me-time!
At first, I muted the sound, then put it on and jumped out of my skin! The first thing hearing was its throat hackles. Great video of this beautiful Raven. 😀
It's a weird noise that's for sure. Thanks for watching 👍
Awesome, those are some pretty cool sounds.
Sure are... thanks for watching 😀👍
i love how beautiful they look
Sounds like a velociraptor
Far out, never heard that comparison before but it does sound like the Jurassic movie ones. Cheers and thanks for watching. 😉
Everybody's got something to say!
it disserves chin scritches
Mimicking chainsaw destroying their habitat? 🥲
This is so precious! Thanks for sharing!! 🤗💞
Amazing! Love it! Thanks for sharing😍🖤🖤
Cheers! Thanks for watching 😃👍
Is a silly burb 😂🎉
Great capture. Thanks Ron!
Cheers Daniel : )
Thank you. I like hearing the different sounds they make so I can compare to the ones living by my home in Arizona, U.S..
Cheers, happy to be able to help. Love the Arizona landscape. Thanks for watching ☺
Beautiful bird nice sounds
Here in Australia we call them crows
Yeah, I'm in Aus as well. We call them crows here, but they are actually Ravens. Thanks for watching Elisha 👍
What a funny bird
💓 😊
❤
Le langage , les commentaires de celui-ci
♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Crows are amazing 🤩👍
I also make creaking noises when taking a bath. I'm not a weirdo
Ha ha! 😀👍
What a cutie. The water could be fresher.
Beautiful.
Adorable!
That's a happy bird...
Funny sounds
Super lovely. Thanks for sharing 👍🏻
Cheers, thanks for watching 🙂 👍
Really vibrant eye colour
So very cute.
0:21 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Absolutely classic lovely Ravenness. I wonder if they were talking to their reflection? .
There was another up in the tree and they were chattering to each other if i remember correct. Cheers, thanks for watching : )
@@ronhaines7833 how lovely. Great video. And btw you have inspired me to build a rustic birdbath 😉
@@katejudson8907 thats great to hear.... cheers Kate
Звуки!!!! Красавица!!!
Are we sure thats a raven , it’s very small more like a crow but I’m no expert ❤
Yep it's a Raven, probably a little Raven is deceiving as their only about 10mm smaller than the Australian Raven, the throat hackles are Raven specific.
Also the 2 species of crows we have are seen more up in northern Australia. Also the trough is pretty large. Cheers Matt 👍
Nice video! The bird is talking to himself? Great view of the bird bath.
He’s saying , Change this nasty green water asap !
Probably is, it's stock water, comes from the river like that, can't do much about the it. Thanks for watching 👍
Great video - thanks!
Cheers Rosz, glad you liked it : )
I wonder if it could be imitating a chainsaw.
I've heard other Ravens doing the same vocalisations in other places many miles away, even in other states. It's a nice theory though. Cheers and thanks for watching 👍
I'm afraid of his eyes. 😢 😮 😂
This is the exact sound I just heard outside, must've been a raven. Not sure I've really ever heard/seen ravens in Vermont, haha
That's so strange, just from looking at the ground and shrubs it seemed like this is near the riverland, then I seen Mannum in the description :) great video
Thanks neighbour 😊
Could have sworn I heard it say mayte :S
He's just doing a blessing over the water.
Frequency work.
🤗😘❤️💖❤️💖❤️💖❤️
Is he talking to his reflection? These is also a distant similar response, so maybe it's a conversation.
I think you're right about the conversation. Another Raven is sitting in the tree above the water trough mumbling away. Thanks for watching 🙂👍
Wonder what he's saying. I have a male that comes to my window everday and talks like this. Just wish i understood what he's trying to communicate with me. What a lovely capture!!
Thanks... I'm not sure if its talking to its reflection in the water or your glass window but they also make the same noise when sitting on the electric poles and in trees. Cheers for watching 😊
@@ronhaines7833 My window is pretty transparent. The raven makes really strong eye contact with me and talks (almost like a stare). Other times the female sit on the powerlines or tree right outside my window and calls out to her male to let him know I'm home and then he comes asking for a treat 😂😂. He's even flown to my bedroom window looking for me or they just watch me seeing what i do at home.
@@louiseabsalom1832 yes they are very inquisitive and when it comes to food, very smart and learn quickly. The Ravens in the vid have sort of adopted us, I leave them road kill and the occasional duck egg in one spot and they always check it when flying over, they are also not that worried when we come across them, which is unusual for country Ravens, as they have a bad rep with farmers etc.
It sounds like he's talking to someone off screen.
You're right, i think its talking to another Raven thats sitting in a tree close by. Cheers and thanks for watching.
Sounds a bit 'La Linea-cartoon'. Ha ..., ha ... .
Lovely video and a very beautiful raven. I do wonder what their calls mean, particularly the creaking. My mother gave a Little Raven a small amount of food when she was out shopping, and the Raven creaked at her when they saw her sometime later. Is it some sort of territorial call or anything from indicating recognition?
Hi, thanks for watching. I'm not sure what the creaking is about, could be the Raven recognised her, they are quite smart and remember faces. This Raven is often seen and heard making creaking noises perched on the power pole out the front of our house. Hoping someone will know what its about and post it here. Cheers Vajra.
So shiny
Sure are shiny... they get some help with that... i leave them the odd duck egg thats not up to standard, doesn't take them long to find it. Cheers Trish
I wonder what the creaking sound means? My raven comes to the front door every morning making this beautiful creaking / gurgling sound.
Yeah you have to wonder what the creaking is, I think its some sort of Raven social talk, its not really loud enough for a territorial or group calling which maybe what all the "ark ark arks" are about. What you don't see in this vid (but you can hear a bit) is that another raven sitting in the tree above the watertrough seemingly muttering to the creaking Raven. You're Raven is obviously very comfortable around you.
Thanks for watching Alex, Cheers
He sur as a looot to say
This was served up to me so of course I'm interested. We have a similar property in WA and have a pair of Ravens nesting somewhere near the house. We only have the big Australian Ravens. I have never seen any crows either. The Little Raven looks very similar just maybe the beard is smaller. Ours do the Bob Hawke grumble like this one but I have never seen them do that prolonged Croak. 👍
Thanks for the info, i think with territories they stay out of each others but I've observed them calling to the other Ravens on the fringes, who call back, its almost like a roll call of Ravens in the area, as they all seem to join in. Cheees, Ron.
@@ronhaines7833 I know what you mean, it happens here as well. Mostly we have the Raven couple on our property but about once a year a huge flock gathers for a while and they hang around together for some time on the ground and in trees and fly together making an enormous racket. I really don't know, but I suspect it is how the young ones find mates. By the way, we never harboured any ambition to get monetised when we started our channel. It was more to raise interest in properties like ours because we feel that they have somehow been pushed aside especially in WA. Your channel does that very well, just wondering why you stopped publishing videos
You're right about the flocking together, its a way of finding mates and sometimes exploiting a food source. As for the videos I'll be getting more published soon, we've had a lot of issues to deal with for the last few years and I've had little time, anyway thanks for the inspiration, its nice to find like minded people doing the same thing. regards, Ron.
@@ronhaines7833 🙂
This is funny 😊
I'd make similar sounds if I drank that green stuff.
that chainsaw sound...
They live all around my city but I've never heard one croak like that. You think it's a young bird? It's "beard" doesn't seem as developed as others.
Hi Les, the throat hackles are a not as prominent as they are little Ravens and this one is an adult bird, juveniles have a blue eye for the first year to 18 months, then the eye goes white with a blue ring around the pupil. Australian Ravens are little bigger and have larger throat hackles. Thanks for you're interest. Cheers Les : )
I love Ravens, but the Crows that visit me in Ballarat have no descending note and I can't find these on youtube, being totally blind doesn't help but I've had Aussie Ravens and Crows in my garden but not at the seme time, I would love it if anybody has a recording of the Aussie Crows with no descending notes as there is a bit of debate on my FB feed most grateful for anny links
Thats interesting Stormy, I'll have to listen to our Ravens more closely... if you go to my UA-cam home page there are a couple of vids of Australian Little Ravens calling. Cheers and thanks for watching : )
@@ronhaines7833 Hi Ron, thank you for that and I love listening as I am completely blind I listen to their calls and love how they used to walk across my tin roof in Sebastopol, now I've moved and my roof is no longer tin :D I love them and they me, I talk to them often and they along with my Magpies, Shrikes, Blackbirds and others give me so much joy and make me laugh when they get playful in the garden good to speak with you here Ron and will see if I can follow your new entries etc x
Hi Stormy, you're right about having birds in our life, without them, we'd be poorer for it. I can tell by our local bird calls if theres a cat in the garden or a sparrowhawk, the hawk alarm call is a faster and more intense. Good luck Stormy its nice to hear from you. Cheers, Ron.
@@stormymeiyingliu here's on of the vids, I'll message with the other... ua-cam.com/video/9aERWlCxEgE/v-deo.html
@@stormymeiyingliu here's the other. Cheers ua-cam.com/video/o-fsX5l7OzM/v-deo.html
if they are solitary big black birds they are a Ravens, Ravens are not sociable like crows
Crows are much smaller and have straight beaks.
And no throat hackles... Cheers John thanks for watching
He said🚪
He's a podcaster. 😅
That explains it perfectly 😂
:D
She is complaining because the water is not clear!
Yeah its river water, when it gets stirred up it looks manky. Cheers
Lovely video. Where I live in the UK we don't have Ravens. They are beautiful.
@@claretlover1 cheers, i do like the Raven, here in Aus they can survive the harshest environments, thanks for watching : )
Мессир желает изрыгнуть
Currawong.
Currawongs have yellow\orange eyes, and some white markings at the base of the tail and end of the tail, as well as some white on the flight feathers. They also have a very mournful call... thanks for watching 👍
О чём он рассказывает? 😂
Don't know but they do it a lot, even in flight! 😀👍
Raven - im predator
