    the nails out of Our Lord he rubbed against the hands and feet of Our Lord. The Robin, the Magpie, the Wren and the crow stop with us the whole year. Some birds go away to a warm country in the winter months the swallows go away to a warm country. They go on the deck of a ship each winter and they come back in the Spring time. Some people rob magpie's nests as the magpies eat eggs on Farmers.
