Ravens

We have at least one nest with babies, not far from our craft shop, high in a tree. We thought crows at first, but they did seem bigger - and louder - than we've had in the past. One of our guests mentioned that they might be ravens, but I didn't quite get the specifics of how to tell the difference.
As for the noise, well, we're a 66 acre island, their nest is roughly in the center of the island, and I have heard them from the boathouse dock - about 1/4 mile away. I"m glad I don't work at the craft shop this summer!
