Corvus corax
Not just large but massive, with a thick neck, shaggy throat feathers, and a Bowie knife of a beak. In flight, ravens have long, wedge-shaped tails. They're more slender than crows, with longer, narrower wings, and longer, thinner “fingers” at the wingtips. Common Ravens are entirely black, right down to the legs, eyes, and beak.
This fellow and several of his buddies showed up when we stopped for a picnic lunch in the park.

Mixed business and pleasure.
Nice shots! I see you went to AZ, what was the purpose of the trip if any?
