On the contrary, China people hate crows very much, but crows have a supreme position among British animals, which is also different from China people's aesthetic and cultural psychology. It is a bird of God, a bird of love and a bird of happiness in Britain, and its supreme position among British animals is unimaginable for China people. It is also a bird that cannot live without human beings. Like magpies and sparrows, it has the property of "domestic bird", but it has a completely opposite position in China and Britain. It can be seen that the black body and hoarse cry have changed people's cognitive image of crows due to the aesthetics of the East and the West.

Crows are regarded as treasures in the British royal family. 1660, the royal astronomer john flamsteed observed the stars at night in the Tower of London. He complained to charles ii that the ravens' unbridled gathering and flying affected his observation at the top of the tower. However, when charles ii ordered the crow to be driven away, so many people came out of nowhere and vowed to protect the crow's subjects. They all said with one voice: These crows are sacred to the Tower of London. It has long been said that if crows leave, the Tower of London, the monarchy and Britain will fall apart.

Because Britain was in the civil war at that time, in order to win the hearts of the people and not go against the sky, he ordered the construction of Greenwich Observatory, so that astronomers would no longer disturb the leisure of crows in the Tower of London. Moreover, charles ii has officially issued a decree that the Tower of London must have at least six ravens to ensure the prosperity of Britain. Since then, these crows have become legal "citizens" of the Tower of London. In order to respect the ancient legend, the British government also paid for raising crows in the tower. It is said that as long as there are crows in the tower, England will not be invaded, otherwise, the country will be unlucky.

Extended data:

Crows can be seen everywhere in the sky above London, England, and on the lawn beside the park. People feed crows to show that crows live in harmony. Because "it is related to the fate of the country", the British people are very enthusiastic about hiring "crow officials". In the past 350 years, crows have withstood severe tests such as snowstorm and bombing in World War II. When bird flu broke out in Europe in 2006, the Tower of London put these "god birds" in cages to "take refuge" in order to protect them.

The Tower of London is regarded as a witness to the rise and fall of the British royal family for hundreds of years. However, the image ambassador of such a solemn place is actually a local "specialty" black crow. Today, crows are still regarded as "divine birds" related to national luck, and their status is beyond imagination. Ted hughes, the English poet laureate who died in 1998, wrote the last book of poetry, The Raven.
