An Seachtain seo caite

Last week i saw my first cherry-blossom of the year
also similar white blossoms that might be hawthorn?
In Ireland the hawthorn is regarded as a tree that
is to be respected because it is a fairy tree - Often
out in rural country areas People would be afraid to harm
a hawthorn tree because of the danger of offending the fairies
It is said that though we usually cannot see them
They[the fairys] can see Us - So 'Tis Wise to Respect the Fairies

Last week i made 7 attempts to upload that video clip and the same
message keeps flashing up basically saying that the 'html is open or
not closed or whatever' ? - It is driving me 'bananas'
At this stage i should give-up - It is 'Nuts' to keep trying!

We had the concert on thursday night and It went very well!
There is one especially beautiful melody that we played that
I would love to share with other People:- It is called:-
'The Marguerita'[by eoin duignan the uileann piper ]-our version
was played on an assortment of instruements:Long Low Whistle
Accordian Guitar Violin - It is a very moving gentle beautiful
Melody !!!! and It is really worth Hearing - Truely !!!!

is a web adress where one can hear a sample of this beautiful Air
'The Marguerita' is from a compilation called 'Ancient Rite'



As I walked out at twile-light this eveningI was blown-away
by the Singing of a Bird in a Tree! - Truely It is Amazing
the Power the Range and the Music such Tiny Creatures Display
We Humans at times imagine We are wonderfull at Music - Yet
those Tiny Creatures Sure put us in our place when it comes
to Music - Making !!!! - Wow!- The Little Birds are Amazing !!!!


St Paddy's Day is coming up on the 17th[next tuesday]
