“The wren, the wren, the king of all birds, St. Stephen’s Day was caught in the furze, Up with the kettle and down with the pan, And give us a penny to bury the wren!” St Stephen’s Day or Wren Day was the most colourful part of the festive season for Ireland. To this day, people around the country go ‘hunting the wren,’ singing carols from house to house for a little money in return. In the past, the tradition was even more elaborate, with motley costumes and straw hats, worn to hide their faces
