Banding of Little Ravens
Corvus mellori has been carried out on the Mount Mary
Plains, South Australia, as part of an Area Survey. Although the species 1s generally
nomadic, breeding pairs do not appear to wander great distances. Some locally-bred
birds either remain in, or return to, the region in which they were reared. Information Is
given on trapping procedures and the reaction of Little Ravens to sheep carcases used
for bait when there is abundant other food available nearby. Some aberrant individuals
with white feather-bases could possibly be mistaken for the Little Crow
C. bennetti.
