THE WASHER AT THE FORD

"The Washer at the Ford" (10-18-17 018v2h) is an old morph of an almost year old pic of mine. (The original is of those fabulous tree roots of which I so enjoy taking pix.) The mythological character referenced by the title is the the bean nighe, a form of the better known bean sidhe (or banshee) in Celtic myth. The bean nighe (Scottish Gaelic for "washerwoman" or "laundress") is a female spirit in Scottish folklore, regarded as an omen of death and a messenger from the Otherworld.
