yeldrin

Where it comes from

An alteration of the earlier yowlring, equivalent to yellow + ring.

noun yeldrins · yoldrin · yaldrin · yowdrin · yaldring

Scotland, UK, dated, dialectal The yellowhammer. Bless the bramble and its berries —nor can we conjecture why it should be “a maltreated shrub,” any more than why the “Yellow Yeldrin” should in Scotland—and we believe in England too—be a maltreated bird.
