Abstract
The old wooden crosses of Lithuania are characterized by a variety of forms and decor, which surprised many travelers and explorers of the 19th century. This unique area has been recognized as a UNESCO Intangible Heritage Site because it continues today as a living tradition. Since it is impossible to review all options in one article, this text aims to introduce researchers from other countries to only one of the unique motifs of the decor the representation of birds. The depiction of birds in old Lithuanian wooden crosses was discussed in detail by the author in 2006,1 so I will remind you of the essential statements and briefly discuss the situation of today's monuments.
