Event: Miracle, Wildlife-interactionCuthbert 1.miracle of the obeying ravens

Scholarly Info
Description Cuthbert 1 saw two ravens tearing to pieces the roof of the shelter built near the landing-place, and making themselves a nest. After trying to bid them not to do that injury to those who came over the sea, he banished them from the island. After three days one returned to Cuthbert and began to croak loudly, with humble cries asking his pardon. He gave them pardon and both returned to the island, each holding in its beak half of a piece of swine's lard as a gift for him.
