The first pelicans were presented to Charles II by the Russian ambassador. At the time, diarist John Evelyn was not impressed - he described them at the time as “between a stork and a swan”, which isn’t particularly accurate, and fails to describe their most unusual and noticeable attribute - the huge pouches under their beaks.
I haven’t been able to find out the names of all of the pelicans.
The pelicans may be relatively recent arrivals in the history of London - but they have become as much a part of the city as the ravens of the Tower. So perhaps it’s not surprising that there’s now a myth that if the pelicans ever leave St James’s Park, it will be the end of civilisation as we know it
The second part of your enigma is: London celebrates the 250th birthday of the Kew
