Today, I saw one kind of birds which I've never seen.
There were four black birds flying together in a cloudy sky 20 ~ 30 m ( about 66 ~ 99 feet) above and the color of them appeared black. They were very similar to crows. But there were some differences between them. First I realized the size difference. They were much bigger than crows. Then the shape of their tail (?) . They all had clear fan shaped tail which was also bigger than crows. But the most different part was their calling sound. It was like a eagle or hawk calling.
From these differences, they are clearly not crows. They may be a kind of eagles... but I don't really know. So, if you know about them, please write a comment.
Anyway, it was very interesting to see those birds.

I don't know much about birds in Canada, but if you had seen a large black bird here, bigger than a crow, it would most likely have been a raven. They make many different sounds, some of which are a bit like the cry of eagles. But your birds might also have been some sort of hawk. I'll see if I can find out more. Do you have people at your school that know about birds?
