Nixies are German water sprites who inhabit springs & rivers. Male nixies rarely show themselves to humans. If a female nixy falls in love with a human, she lures them into the water, never to be seen again. Humans caught watching nixies bathe are driven mad.

#FolkloreThursday 🌿#Spring 🦋
Welsh goddess of spring, Blodeuwedd, whose name means “flower face." 🌼
She was created by magicians to become a wife but plotted to murder this unwanted husband. Her punishment was to become an owl, forever haunting the midnight forests. 🦉
When you think of spring, you think of toads...or is that just me?🤔 Anyway, in Japan, ogama are giant toad #yokai that are created when toads reach 1000 years of age. They live deep in the forests and the larger they grow, the more dangerous they become.

It was once considered unlucky for bees to swarm on a dead tree in parts of England. If they did so, it was regarded as an omen that if they swarmed high in the tree, grain prices would rise, swarmed low, and the prices would fall.
