   Roinn Roinn Postáil

   The wren is one of our most common wild birds. She stays with us the whole year round. She is the smallest bird we have. She has a beautiful song and she always sings the same note. The wren is grey in colour and has a brown breast. Her head is small and her beak is black. She is a very tame bird and and if you are near her she will not fly away. The wren is one of our best nest builders. She places a roof on her nest. She builds it of leaves, ferns, and moss. She places it in a wall or in the hedge in a place where she thinks no one can see it.
   The father bird brings the things required to build the nest, while the little mother builds it. When the wren has her nest built she lays her eggs. She lays one every day until she has seventeen or eighteen laid. These are white with brown spots all over them. They are very tiny and easily broken. The mother bird sits on the eggs and in ten days
