The return of the chough to kent (a jackdaw sized corvid with red feet and bill)
It’s been reintroduced to the white cliffs of Dover after 3 long years.
It’s a legendary bird found in the coat of arms of Canterbury since legend suggests it got its red ness through dipping and pecking in the blood of Thomas a beckett.
