People were asked to bring feathers, children were making paper 'feathers' with thoughts hopes and good wishes written on them that were hung on branches. I say he did well, getting feathered.

Inventors and explorers from all over the world are baffled by evidence of an ancient giant living underneath the Macnas workshop at Fisheries Field in Galway city. Professor Marjorie Morrigan, an expert Giants & Where They Come From, said – “This giant seems to have been here for centuries. There is a very large iron nose, so big and rusty,  you could park a car in one of the nostrils.”

Professor Marjorie Morrigan went on to confirm that this big fella belongs to the legendary Tuatha De Danann tribe. His name is Con Mór and he comes from an ancient Island of Giants off the coast of Connaught. Con Mór was so famous across Ireland for his love of birds and nature, his friends used to call him The Bird King!  And Macnas have indeed reported loads of birds flying about the Macnas workshop, with nests appearing in the workshop itself and all the trees surrounding their HQ.

To help welcome Con to Fisheries Field, Macnas  are asking children (and grown ups) to make, find or bring a feather to Macnas over the Halloween Bank Holiday Weekend, along with their message of hope attached to the feather, and give it to Con Mór.
