Zhar meaus "'glowing heart,' as of a furnace"; and Zhar-Ptitsa means, literally, "the Glow- Bird." "Its appearance corresponds with its designation. Its feathers blaze with golden or silvery sheen, its eyes shine lik...e crystal, it dwells in a golden cage. In the depth of the night it flies into a garden and lights it up as brilliantly as could a thousand burning fires. A single feather from its tail illuminates a dark room.
