Ravens generally build their nests in the crevices of a chalk or other cliff, or the highest forks of tall trees, or suchlike places of security. The structure is composed of twigs, wool, and horsehair, and the eggs are four or five in number, of a pale green-ground colour, spotted and speckled with a darker greenish-brown. The female sits for twenty days, the male feeding her the while, and sometimes relieving her in the duties of incubation. When the young are hatched, the parent birds supply their wants with most persevering attention, but when old enough the parents drive them away, and they are forced to provide for themselves. Ravens are partially migratory, the reason apparently being want of food, though possibly the cold may affect them, and induce them to seek warmer parts. Many are the anecdotes that have been related of the Haven, most of them concerning those birds that have been kept in confinement; for under the latter circumstances, or with clipped wings, the Raven is a droll fellow, and is generally in conflict with the dog or cat, though they sometimes set up a great friendship. The bird is endowed with a passion for secretiveness quite as much as the Magpie, and what it cannot eat is invariably hidden. The principal reason, however, which has occasioned the Raven to be made a pet is its marvellous power of imitating the human voice, as also any other sound that may particularly strike its ear. HIS interesting bird, whose marvellous powers of flight and shrill peculiar note are so well known, is included by older naturalists in the family Hirttitdina or Swallows, of which it is made to form a special sub family; but modern authorities consider that it is more closely allied to...
