- (continued from previous page)breast. I heard a story about how the Wren became King of the birds. A number of birds held a meeting one day to see which of them would become King. They agreed that the one who would fly the highest would be made King. They started off flying.Some of the weaker birds dropped out of the race. The eagle flew up very high and was just going to shout "I am King" when the little wren, who was hiding under his wing flew up above him. So he was made King of the birds because he played the trick.
