Black Birds Swallows are migratory birds that indicate the arrival of spring, which is synonymous with the arrival of the courtship season. These birds have a characteristic that sets them apart. They almost always return to the same place where they first made the nest & have only one partner along the way! Therefore, they became a symbol of Love, Family, Loyalty, Home & Loyalty. Because they have become such an important symbol, their exchange between deeply in love couples quickly became habitual. They are also the meaning of harmony & happiness in the houses where they are hung. There is also a purchase between these magnificent birds & the Portuguese people.
