Unless it's a raven, I don't have the reference page to help me know the difference

raven. skinnier head proportionally to it's body, and even with a straight on photo you can tell the beak is thicker and longer (the depth of field is an indicator). crows also have flatter heads and are generally less fluffy than ravens (except for carrion crows but their eyes face more forward and have pupils). also the scale i think. ravens are 50% larger

This sort of dumb, short video helped me determine that we have ravens here, not crows.

Hard to tell from that angle, but I can't see the tuft of feathers on top of the beak that Ravens have.
Maybe someone with a better eye can tell.
Awesome meme though!

The easy way to identify that this is a raven is that the photo was taken in the Tower of London.
