Book Synopsis Ireland's Birds by : Niall Mac Coitir
Download or read book Ireland's Birds written by Niall Mac Coitir and published by Gill & Macmillan Ltd. This book was released on 2015-09-28 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Birds have been important symbols in our art and culture for thousands of years. They have inspired poets and painters, and feature in many place names and legends. In this book, Niall Mac Coitir draws together the mythology, legends and folklore of Ireland's birds, both wild and domestic. The birds are presented in seasonal order based on their migratory habits (the cuckoo and summer) or on their cultural associations (the robin with Christmas). He also explores how birds are often powerful symbols of various virtues and qualities, such as the goose, which is a symbol of watchfulness and bravery. This challenges us to look at birds in a different way, as dynamic creatures that have influenced our society over the millennia. Written with imagination and enthusiasm, this mix of natural history, mythology and folklore will delight and enlighten all interested in the birds of Ireland.
