The wise and elusive Wren is the King of the Birds – a little bird, cunning, fertile, and with a strong beautiful voice that particularly inspired the Bards, and was sacred to Taliesin, and a voice of augury for the Druids. There are many folk songs – especially in Wales and Ireland, about the Winter custom of “Hunting of the Wren – Hela’r Dryw”. This folk tradition has ancient roots, and potent symbolism around the Winter Solstice.. “Y neb a dorro nyth y dryw, Ni chaiff iechayd yn ei fyw” – Whoever robs the wren’s nest shall, Never have wealth in his life”All artwork and text ©Jen Delyth ©2016 READ MORE
