On one of my favourite 'clever underdog' fables of Aesop: the wren is real the king of the birds because it is cleverer than the eagle on whose back it secretly hitched a ride to the highest heaven before popping out and up (Plutarch, Political Precepts 12.806e).

St Stephens day
day

The king of winter lives, and winter is strolling into view.
Let’s hope it’s a bit of frost and crisp clear days rather than only knee deep mud!
