A somewhat large magpie sitting in the rain on a brown wood fence. Dark leaves from a tree sit behind the wet & shaggy bird.

I can't shake the feeling that it looks a little raven like. The head is big, the body is rounder the beak seems really big for a magpie. It just looks weird to me. Im obsessed.

TIL! I saw the photo and immediately went to wikipedia to confirm that. It looks clearly like a corvid in this photo.
