Gamayun, in a painting by Viktor Vasnetsov
Gamayun is a prophetic bird of Russian folklore. It is a symbol of wisdom and knowledge and lives on an island in the east, close to paradise. Like the Sirin and the Alkonost, the Gamayun is normally depicted as a large bird with a woman's head.
In his esoteric Christian-Buddhist cosmography Roza Mira, Daniil Andreev maintains that Sirins, Alkonosts, and Gamayuns are transformed into Archangels in Paradise.
oh, i want to be one - maybe :)
had a small woodpecker on the bird feeder this afternoon.
taking seeds back to the russian olive tree - going back and
forth - sometimes landing on the shephards hook and sliding
down.
was fun to watch although once again i wished i was
using my old canon ef camera with the 70-210 zoom.
thanks karl that was fun, i see i am a little out of practice
again :eek:
been a little busy so missing you all, and apparently should
have been asleep a while ago - silly me.
