Why are there crows in ancient Metheus murals, if canonically they’re supposed to have recently arrived in the Constant?

Why are there crows in those ancient murals

if Maxwell says he doesn’t know how they got here

and we’re shown (well, heavily suggested) in the Wes trailer that they are the descendants of two crows who chased Wes and accidentally entered with him?

they have blue wings for that i always though that they were the winter birds and that part of the mural is telling us that there are seasons which could be one of the things why the ancients decided to live underground

Maxwell has a similar quote for the canary, so it's slightly possible that they arrived via other means, but it would certainly be weird. Despite the fact they're black they don't look very crow-like. Maybe its a bird transformed by nightmare fuel gone extinct? On the other hand, there's probably a reason they were added. Maybe the ancients were indeed around at the same time as Maxwell, and it was a crow. Those are my random thoughts.

Just a general drawing for "bird" maybe? Puffins are also kinda black and... Vultures... Kind of.

Yeah, I think it just represents that there are birds.

Maybe the upcoming Cawrnival will have a black bird with blue wings?
