Wild black bird with purple/blue undertones. They're over 25" long, weigh about 1 1/3 lbs, have a 15" wingspan, & lay 3~5 eggs. At Buckingham Palace they have 6 resident ravens who are taken care of & released every morning & return on their own every night! They're thought to be good luck!

"Once a midnight dreary,
while I pondered, weak and weary,
over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore.
While I nodded, nearly napping,
suddenly, there came a tapping,
as of someone gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
'Tis some visitor,' I muttered. 'Tapping at my chamber door.
Only this, and nothing more.'" - The opening lines of The Raven

The Baltimore Ravens, professional football team and one of four teams in the Northern Division of the American Football Conference (AFC) of the National Football League (NFL). The Ravens play at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore, Maryland, and wear uniforms of purple, black, white, and gold.
After the Baltimore Colts moved to Indianapolis in 1984, Baltimore was without a professional football team for 12 years. After being passed up by the NFL for an expansion team in favor of Jacksonville and Carolina, Baltimore took matters into its own hands and had the Cleveland Browns moved to Baltimore in 1996. The name was changed to the Ravens after the famous poem "The Raven" by Edgar Allan Poe, who lived in Baltimore. Since then they have gone on to compile an incredible defense and win Super Bowl XXXV in 2000.
