The wren’s lost his crown
In the thorns and the fern.
Now redbreast is king,
And spring will return!

But where is the wren?
Where is Dreoilín?
He flies through the bushes,
Doesn’t want to be seen.

A pigeon looks on at
A blue-tit in branches,
The ducks and the swans,
Sail past in huge tranches.

A goose looks me over,
With a dubious glare,
And then a grey heron
Takes off in the air.

A moorhen steps bravely
Alone on the ice,
Some seagulls do likewise
But can launch in a thrice.

A seagull soars high
As a sparrow looks on,
The blue-jay sings loudly
His intricate song.

A magpie, a blackbird,
A tit in a tree,
But nowhere I look
That wee wren can I see.

On #LáAnDreoilín,
By the moor and the bog,
I went to hunt the wren,
In wind and rain and fog.

Appropriate song for today
Love the folklore of birds. So many stories around the world about our tiny, humble Wren ♥️

"Oh the wren, oh the wren is the king of all birds" #StStephensDay

Sacred to the Druids, the Drui-en or Druid bird, represents cunning, humility, and God. Small is beautiful. Greatness lies in humility, subtlety, and gentleness. #TarotSky 📷 from The Druid Animal Oracle.

Today is probably the day I miss Ireland the most. St. Stephen’s Day is always a great day to take a break from the selection boxes and turkey sandwiches, and go to the local to meet up with mates for a few pints of stout by the fire.

It might be #StStephensDay but our regular work continues on. Kilbarrack firefighters were called to provide fire cover for an @IrishCoastGuard helo landing near Beaumont Hospital this afternoon.

Lá an Dreoilín - 26th December

The Wran, the Wran, the king of all birds.

On St Stephen’s Day I was caught in the furze.

Although I am little my family is great,

Rise up landlady and give us a trate.
