HAWKS
HAWKS HAVE NESTS ON THE HILLS NEAR THE LAKES OF KILLARNEY. IT
BRINGS BAD LUCK TO SHOOT THEM DOWN BECAUSE ALL THE HAWKS HAVE THE
SPIRITS OF THE EARLY PIRATES WHO TRIED TO INVADE IRELAND, BUT WHO
WERE KILLED BY THE NATIVES. THEIR SOULS DID NOT GO TO HELL; THEY
WENT INTO THE HAWKS NEAR KILLARNEY. THIS IS WHY THOSE HAWKS ARE
SO VICIOUS, AND THEY HATE THE NATIVES. BUT THEY ARE LEFT LIVE,
BECAUSE OF THE SPIRITS THEY CONTAIN. TO KILL THEM WOULD BE TO LET
LOOSE THE BAD SPIRITS OVER THE PLACE, AND THAT WOULD BE VERY
DANGEROUS TO THE NATIVE PEOPLE OF KILLARNEY AND THE AMERICAN
TOURISTS WHO VISIT THE PLACE.
