Mildburh

Saint Mildburh (alternatively Milburga or Milburgh) (d.715) was the Benedictine abbess of Wenlock Abbey.
She was a daughter of Merewalh, King of the Mercian sub-kingdom of Magonsaete, and Saint Ermenburga. Saint Mildrith and Saint Mildgytha were her sisters. She had a mysterious power over birds; they would avoid damaging the local crops when she asked them to. She was also known for performing miracles.
Her feast day is 23 February.
