She looks so vaguely disappointed in everything around her.
Definitely a parent.

I've also seen her feed them off of her trash food find in a way that makes me fairly sure that those three smaller ones have been in her nest not too long ago, wide open beaks and everything... only to have one of them grab the whole thing and run off to eat it alone.
She didn't even follow them to get it back. Very "Oh, kids will be kids, and I wasn't that hungry anyway..." energy.
What kind of species is it? I've never saw crows with white feathers were I'm from.
That's a hooded crow, or Corvus cornix. They are pretty much the default kind of crow where I live!
Crazy! it looks so much like magpie from afar.
Compared to magpies, hooded crows are much more grey than white in the lighter areas, but I see what you mean!
