corbeaux

Corbeaux is a French word that translates to "ravens" in English. It is often used to refer to the common raven (Corvus corax) or other large, black birds of the genus Corvus, which also includes crows. In French culture and folklore, corbeaux are frequently associated with omens, magic, and the supernatural. They appear in various myths, legends, and literary works, sometimes symbolizing wisdom and prophecy, and at other times, ill fortune or death. The distinctive appearance of these birds, with their glossy black plumage and intelligent gaze, has contributed to their significant symbolic weight across many cultures. The word "corbeaux" itself carries this rich cultural baggage. Beyond their symbolic meanings, corbeaux are intelligent and adaptable birds, known for their problem-solving abilities and complex social structures. They inhabit a wide range of environments across the Northern Hemisphere. The term can be used generically or specifically depending on the context in which it is employed.
