    Her Majesty’s Ravens

    Recently the Ravens of The Tower of London have been moved indoors to protect them from the spreading avian flu."As every school child knows, there have been ravens at the Tower of London since time immemorial, and if they ever leave, the monarchy and the tower itself will fall." From the Guardian article about the legend. The current roster of Ravens are Branwen, Hugin, Munin, Gwyllum, Thor and Baldric.
    Saturday Evening Post article about the Ravens from 1993
