Pelican Font in St. Stephen

So after St. Peter Mancroft we head back to St. Stephen and find it open. It was undergoing major repairs because the ground on one corner was sinking, causing the walls to crack. But the pelican, this time on the font cover, was of particular—albeit not medieval—interest. If you look closely, you can see the red on the breast of this pelican signifying the blood.
