Birds of Lore
Posted by: Nick Redfern on August 30th, 2012
Dr. Karl Shuker tells us:
“World mythology is brimming with legendary, fabulous birds and other avian entities of every conceivable kind, of which a few have become globally famous, such as the roc or rukh, the phoenix, the harpy, the simurgh, Garuda, and the Chinese feng-huang. The vast majority, conversely, have attracted far less attention, and in many cases have never even been the subjects of noteworthy illustrations.”
Fortunately, that situation is changing!
