I've been watching the superbly photographed drama Rainshadow. I
haven't heard a lot of bird calls in the sound track [there was a bit of
a falling leaf in tonight's episode], but I have enjoyed the placement
of the "Shakespearean" crows throughout the visuals. Not being a
Croweater, I can't say what manner of corvid they are, though I can tell
that they aren't Torresian Crows [my local variety] and they don't look
like Aus Ravens either.

I, too enjoyed tonight's episode.
The outdoor scenes for this series were largely filmed just west of here
in Murray Bridge - in the small towns of Callington and Monarto which
are about 60km SW of Adelaide. It has been interesting trying to
identify scenery, roads, shops and buildings as they appear.
By far the dominant corvid species around here is the Little Raven,
though Australian Ravens are recorded from time to time. Those featured
tonight seemed to look like Little Ravens BUT on the soundtrack they
sounded more like the Australian Raven.
