Birtle Whitlow was a weasel who was martyred for his belief in the Green. A mob of Hobber crows pecked out his eyes before carrying him off to devour him in the treetops. He is the patron saint of blindness or any other disorder of the eye. His feast day is on 9 December.

- Oswald Chitter would often pray to Birtle in the hopes that his pink eyes would become 'normal'.
