From BBCnews:
Tower's ravens are kept indoors
The raven master said they do not like to keep the birds inside The
Tower of London has decided to keep its famous ravens indoors to
protect them from bird flu.
Special aviaries have been created for the six birds within one of
the towers of the fortress on the Thames as legend has it the Tower
of London will collapse and the kingdom will fall if all the ravens
leave.
The Tower ravens - named Branwen, Hugine, Munin, Gwyllum, Thor and
Baldrick - are said to be getting used to their new surroundings. The
Tower's Yeoman raven master, Derrick Coyle, said: "Although we don't
like having to bring the Tower ravens inside, we believe it is the
safest thing to do for their own protection, given the speed that the
virus is moving across Europe.
