Ryan, John. The Wren song, sung by John Ryan, Colliers
Colliers resident John Ryan sings the wren songThe wren is just one of several Christmastime house-visiting traditions that
continue in Newfoundland and Labrador. Typically, children and/or adults will
visit homes within their community carrying around an effigy of a small
bird—the wren. Upon entry into a home, they usually recite a poem about the
wren and may offer some kind of performance, be it song, joke, or recitation.
Often the host will offer up food, drink, or money for the visit. Unlike other
house-visiting traditions, there are no disguises involved
