The Folklore of Garden Birds: Blackbirds, Sparrows, Wrens & Robins
Manage episode 434703925 series 3340847
It's often easy to overlook what we see every day, or at least regularly. Perhaps that's why we overlook our humble garden birds in favour of majestic eagles or mischievous ravens as our favourite birds.
Yet the commonality of these small, yet often noisy, birds explains why there is a comparative dearth of folklore about them. Compared to other birds, there's a plethora to choose from. Death omens, cheeky tricksters in myth, and stars of nursery rhymes - these birds do it all!
Let's find out more about the folklore of blackbirds, sparrows, wrens, and robins in this week's episode of Fabulous Folklore!
