Overview Did you know that it s considered a sin to harm a robin Or that seagulls were once thought to be the souls of dead sailors And do you know what happens if you listen to a blackbird s song on May Day With The Folklore of Birds you can discover the fascinating folklore behind nature s most intriguing animals At once familiar and unknowable birds have for centuries provided a rich source of speculation and myth making From the Catholic belief that barnacle geese were actually fish and could therefore be eaten on the Sabbath to the Ancient Greek tale of Ceyx and Halcyone who were transformed into kingfishers after death as reward for their fidelity our feathered friends have given rise to an astonishingly rich body of myth legend and superstition With its interesting titbits and curious facts coupled with breathtakingly beautiful illustrations The Folklore of Birds is charming quirky gift for the birdwatcher in your life
