有關燕子的資料 Some information about Swallow and Swift

表揚好人好事

阿思及各位燕子研究小組成員:

看到您們這麼多的義務工作成果分享,忍不住寫下片言隻語來表揚。

燕子在中外歷史都有記載,在舊約聖經詩篇八十四篇 (編於公元前450年)已將燕子為自己找著菢雛之窩作為安穩之描述。在中國漢朝時(公元前200年)有不少詩詞字畫也以燕子為素材,佷多時燕子是代表健康、醫治,不愧為中國吉祥物。最令我覺得驚奇的是漢代典籍中竟載有班超擁有燕子般下巴的字句,漢朝是否己存在擁有望遠鏡的觀鳥者?.........




PAY COMPLIMENT TO GOOD PEOPLE AND GOOD DEED

Dear Ah Sze and members of swallows and swift survey group

I cannot help sending you a few words expressing my thanks to your good voluntary work performed.

There were documentations regarding swallows and swifts in both Ancient China and other part of the world.  In the Old Testimony of the bible which was edited at 450BC, there was a verse "the swallow a nest for herself, where she may have her young" (Psalm 84:3)to describe a peaceful and harmonious life.  There were quite a number of literature and artcrafts with swallows and swifts as themes during Ancient China Hang Dynasty (200BC).  Swallows always denoted health and healing.  What most surprised me was that an ancient hero at Hang Dynasty was described to have a chin like a swallow. Did they have keen bird watchers and binoculars in those good old days?.......
