The Superstition of the Robin

The robin, despite the belief that it was blessed among birds because a robin plucked a thorn from the crown of thorns on Christ's head; nevertheless, it was considered very unlucky if a robin gained entrance to a house.

Robert Hunt, Popular Romances of the West of England.)
