Is there a leprechaun in your garden
There is no mention to be found of female leprechauns in traditional Irish legend, so as to how they came to be . your guess is as good as mine.
These apparently aged, diminutive men are hard-working cobblers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], turning out exquisite shoes for other sprites. If you happen across an industrious little fellow hammering out a shoe, look closely - for he may be a leprechaun. Step quietly,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], for leprechauns will avoid humans, knowing us to be foolish and greedy.
A leprechaun dresses in old-fashioned clothes of green, with a red cap, multi-pocketed leather apron, and buckled shoes. He is quite fond of a smoke from his foul smelling clay pipe which is always close by, and he is frequently in an intoxicated state from home-brew poteen. However, a leprechaun never becomes so drunk that the hand which holds the hammer becomes unsteady and his shoemaker's work affected. If you hear the sound of a hammer from behind a hedgerow you know you have found him.
As well as cobbling, his other trade is banking, and he is guardian to the ancient treasures. Much treasure was left by the Danes when they marauded through Ireland, and the leprechaun buries it in crocks or pots. Rainbows reveal where pots of gold are hidden, so he will sometimes spend all day moving crocks from one spot to another to elude the tell-tale end of the rainbow. If you catch a leprechaun,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], don't let him out of your grasp before he reveals his gold. He'll try to distract you with all manner of tricks and, in the blink of an eye, will dash out of sight. For such a sturdy little chap,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], he can move with the speed of a rabbit.
He carries two leather pouches. In one there is a silver shilling,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a magical coin that returns to the purse each time it's spent. In the other there is a gold coin for bribing his way out of difficult situations. (Don't accept this coin - it turns into a rock). But he can be generous if you do him a good turn. Your kind deed wil be repaid with a wish.
Leprechauns come in two distinct groups - leprechaun and cluricaun. A cluricaun dresses very stylishly with a jaunty cap, large silver buckles on his shoes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], beautiful gold laces and pale blue stockings. You will never see him wear an apron or carry a hammer. He has a jolly grin, a slightly pink-tipped nose and is almost always drunk and cheerful. Pass him by, for he never has any money,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], or any idea where treasure is buried.
A cluricaun will steal or borrow almost anything,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], making merry and creating mayhem in your house during the hours of darkness. Leprechauns denounce cluricaun behavior,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but it has been said that cluricauns may just be leprechauns on drunken sprees.
You can make a trap with common household items. Take a net,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a cardboard box,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], green paint,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], green tissue paper,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], some pennies and an old shoe. Firstly,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], paint the cardboard box green and place the old shoe inside. Cover the opening with thin green tissue paper. Carefully lay the pennies on the tissue paper. (If you don't want to use real money, you can easily substitute chocolate gold- wrapped coins or make your own by cutting circles out of cardboard and painting them gold).
Place the trap near some trees or hedgerows. Make sure it's disguised well and blends into the surroundings. When the Leprechaun sees the coins he will try to collect them. He will step onto the tissue paper,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it will break and he will fall into the box. Now quickly throw the net over him.
You can also try to lure a leprechaun with some poteen instead of an old shoe. When he falls into the box he will drink the brew, get drunk and then you can grab him.
