St. COLMAN OF KILMACDUAGH
Christian Saint
Also known as Colman-Macduagh
Chosen to be a bishop, he ran off to hide as a hermit in the mountains of County Clare
Here he lived with a mouse who nibbled his ear in time to wake him up for the rooster trained to announce time for prayer.
He also kept a bluebottle to mark his place in the holy manuscripts. Luckily there were no books; the fly would not have survived as a bookmark.
Eventually he accepted his responsibilities and built two churches and a monastery.
