MINWINGS IN WALES?

 

 

An old stone mill stands on the banks of the emerald River Teifi near the village of Cenarth, South Wales, Britain. Salmon attempt to leap over the spectacular waterfall as it foams over the daunting grey rocks. The birds sing out cheerfully as I stroll along the meandering pathway that follows the river. Buttercups, wild primroses soft moss and delicate ferns decorate the landscape with bright yellows and greens. This is an ancient land. A land where many have trod before. A land of high hedges, sandy beaches, rolling fields and imposing cliffs.

 
 
 

It isn't long before I notice the unmistakeable signs of Minwing life. Pathways leading to small openings at the bottoms of old trees, well camouflaged by vines and greenery.  Tiny piles of petals gathered for soft, fragrant beds to curl up in out of the sun. 

 
 
 
 

                  Miniature footprints on brightly coloured toadstools. What a magical place! Surely, if I sit quietly, I will catch a glimpse of a Welsh Minwing!

  1. So, are the Welsh minwings similar to the Island Minwings?

  2. Yes, in appearance but they have a complicated language. Mostly consonants and few vowels.

  3. That would make it difficult if you wanted to write about them, also difficult for us here in Canada to read.

  4. I'd have to get an interpreter. Maybe Auntie Rosie would volunteer:)
