Dru: The woodcut was sent to me by the composer when I made exactly the same enquiry - thinking that probably a 'Winter Wren' would turn out to be something different to 'ours', as with the American Robin. I should maybe have added a note to this effect since I couldn't fit the illustration on the same page. Certainly the tune reminds me of what was singing very loudly in my backyard as I was compiling the mag.
