Saint David's Day: Google doodle leeks online

Google has celebrated St David's Day with a doodle depicting a red dragon taking tea with a woman wearing the traditional Welsh national costume of a tall black bonnet and a long red dress.

St David's Day or Dydd Gŵyl Dewi Sant is the feast day of Saint David, the patron saint of Wales, and falls on 1 March every year.

Saint David was born towards the end of the 5th century and became renowned as a teacher and preacher, founding monastic settlements and churches. The date of his death is recorded as 1 March, though the year of his death is uncertain.

Schools and cultural societies across Wales commemorate Saint David with parades and concerts, and it is traditional to wear daffodils or strips of leek on lapels and caps.
