Today we celebrate the wren.
When God told the birds of the world to choose a king, they decided it should be whoever could fly the highest (I guess the ostriches and penguins weren't invited).
The wren sneakily clung to the eagle's breast. The eagle flew higher than all the other birds, but then the wren darted out from under him flew just that little bit higher.
And that's why the wren is the king of birds.

The wren, the wren, the king of all birds
On St Stephen's Day he was caught in the Furze
Although he was little his family was great
So up with the kettle and down with the pan
And give us a penny to bury the wren.#WrenDay #StStephensDay #SaintStephensDay #Ireland #Mastodaoine

The #wren, the wren, yhe king of all birds,
#StStephensDay he was caught in the furze
Although he was little
His family was great
So up with the kettle and down with the pan
And give us a penny to bury the wren
If you haven't got a penny
A ha'penny will do
If you haven't got a ha'penny
Then God bless you. -
