IDA (d. 559) , See also:king of See also:Bernicia, became king in 547, soon after the See also:foundation of the See also:kingdom of Bernicia by the Angles.. He built the fortress of Bebbanburh, the See also:modern Bamborough, and after his See also:death his kingdom, which did not extend See also:south of the See also:Tees, passed in turn to six of his sons. The surname of i The number of names by which this See also:species was known in See also:ancient times—Chloris or Chlorion, Galbula (akin to Galgulus), Parra and Vireo—may be explained by its being a See also:common and conspicuous See also:bird, as well as one which varied in plumage according to See also:age and See also:sex (see See also:ORIOLE). Owing to its See also:general See also:colour, Chloris was in See also:time transferred to the See also:GREENFINCH (q.v.), while the names Galbula, Parra and Vireo have since been utilized by ornithologists (see See also:JACAMAR and JACANA). See also:Flame-See also:Bearer," sometimes applied to him, refers, however, not to Ida, but to his son Theodric (d. 587). See J. R. See also:Green, Making of See also:England, vol. i.
