Northern raven
While the Northern Raven or Western Raven (Corvus corax corax) are wild birds found in the UK, their presence in Londonia is primarily associated with the Tower of London, where they are a famous and protected group. Though ravens are seen elsewhere in the UK, such as in the north and west, their appearance in central London is usually within the Tower's grounds. While the Tower ravens are the most well-known, ravens are also seen in other areas of the UK, including some parts of London, like Richmond Park, Enfield, and Rainham Marshes.
Ravens are large, all-black birds with a powerful beak and a wedge-shaped tail. They are much larger than crows and rooks.
Folklore and Symbolism: Ravens have been associated with knowledge, wisdom, and even prophecy in European folklore.
