"I saw a falcon hovering over me in the air, not actually moving. As I looked up, a Swiss woman approached me and spontaneously shared with me that whenever a falcon is hovering like that, it is the Holy Spirit."

I knew their reputation with insects, but after watching live, a shrike pounce on and then wrestle to death, a field mouse roughly its same size, I immediately knew why some call it a mini-raptor. And I became an instant fan! #northernshrike #birdlore #birds

'The bee, the bat, the butterfly,
The cuckoo and the swallow,
The corncrake and the weather-bleat,
Soon all the rest will follow'

In Warwickshire, the Goldfinch was known as "Proud Tailor" as it was believed these colourful little birds contained the souls of tailors who, when alive, would sing as sweetly as the Goldfinch while working the cloth #folklore #birdlore

Dive into #FolkloreSunday with puffins, the colorful clowns of the sea! In Shetland folklore, they're believed to have magical feathers that bring luck. Meanwhile, in Faroese tales, puffins are said to guide lost souls with their nocturnal flights. #Puffins #Birdlore
