Swallow - Orange Red Textiles

Swallow - Orange Red TextilesOften seen perching in flocks, the Warou is a small and elegant bird with a quiet call and a rapid, graceful flight pattern. Appearing in large numbers with the early days of warm weather, they are often considered to be the harbingers of spring.
