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

A history in quotes.(1) The first mention of hunting the wren i can find is in "Miscellanies Upon Various Subjects" by John Aubrey, published first in 1696, reprinted with additions in 1721.
I'd suspect this is a retcon, creating an explanation for an existing feature os Irish life. It's set around the time if a battle fought 21st June 1650 between Sir Charles Coote and Bishop Heber MacMahon near Letterkenny

Happy Jesus-Sobers-Up-After-The-Birthday-Rager Day!
Do you know why they call it #BoxingDay? Because it commemorates the day after the first Christmas, when the Baby Jesus fought Joe Frasier for 17 rounds.
Jesus' half-brother Norman was born on this day, becoming the first child to get screwed over by his birthday's closeness to Christmas.
It's also #WrenDay across the pond. Wren Day is called Wren Day for cheerful and animal-friendly reasons I'm sure. Now to take a big gulp of wassail and...

A little #bird told me today is #WrenDay. Unfortunately we don't have wrens this time of year in S #Wisconsin. #Winter does, however, bring us the gifts of northern #birds like American Tree Sparrows, Red Fox Sparrows, and Dark-eyed Juncos to take the sting off this cold season. I have some images but they are frankly too sucky to share. 😅

I'e come across stories that a twittering #wren alerted #Roman soldiers to where #SaintStephen was hiding, but those strike me as a post hoc attempt to explain why #WrenDay and #StStephensDay are on the same day.
You rarely see #WrenBoys nowadays. That's a real shame, it was a really fun tradition. Also #charity. Charity is good.

The story my mum told me is that God told the #birds to choose a king for themselves. The birds figured that since flying is their whole thing, their king should be whoever could fly the highest (so screw #ostriches I guess).
The #wren hung on to the #eagle, who flew higher than any other #bird... but then the wren nipped out and flew just that bit higher than the eagle. Since the wren technically flew the highest, he has been king of the birds ever since.
