So the one with the throat thing going on is the male? Or do both sexes have the throat hackles?
I've modelled these off the Aussie raven; both have throat hackles (in fact, offhand, I think they have the largest throat hackles of any raven in the world). The male has the slightly larger ones, and is a tiny bit bigger than the female; so in this one, he's the one on top with his eye open. :)
And I've never seen a white or leucistic raven in person before, but that's okay, I see them when I journey; and I become one myself sometimes.
