No, it is definitely, definitely a crow. It's way too small to be a raven, and his beak is nowhere near as chunky, though the camera may distort it slightly in the closeups. He's fluffed up because he had been fluffed up all day and was so when he died – he looked like a bird with salmonella, but I imagine any bird with a fever would have been fluffed up, and I don't have much experience with sick birds who don't have salmonella. Nearly all the corvids in my neighbourhood (minus the jays of course) are crows and there are LOTS of them; you can tell when a raven is around because they all go nuts and drive it off.
Anyway, I am wearing gloves and have a kerchief around my nose and mouth.
