In Celtic lore the Heron was associated with birth
and the creation of life - its Welsh name Creyr literally means
"creator". In Egyptian mythology the heron (Benu) is the sun bird, the
ba or soul of Re, and symbolises the rise of life heralding a new period
of wealth and fertility. The Benu is described as "the one who came into
being by himself".
