Wren Day

The birds are becoming more plentiful at the feeder. A couple of days ago, the Wren stopped by. The bird app says this is a Bewick's Wren. Didn't know there were more than one type of wren. He hung out on the wagon wheel for a second, but that was long enough to snap a quick shot.


The next day I saw him up the road on a branch.


 He was singing a song. I'm sure it was just for me. :)


Then, this morning I saw him sitting on the top of a pipe connected to the fence. Sadly, by the time I snapped the shot he had ducked inside and then immediately flew away.  They are speedy little things.

    Wrens do nest in some unusual places. I wonder if he was inspecting with a view to moving in? Keep a watch Betty.

    Wrens certainly are fast! Love the pose on the wagon wheel, and the last photos made me laugh out loud!
    Have a wonderful weekend!

    Cute little bird - I've seen one or two - and they do indeed move quickly.

    Lovely little wren. Glad he sang for you. I wonder what he lost down in that pipe? :-)

    Such a sweet little wren. I especially love the last shot. It makes my day to hear the birds singing.

    Hello!:) I'm sure you were thrilled to see and listen to the Wren. Wrens are a treat to see, and they sing loudly and cheerfully,...I love to hear them too. It may have been checking out future living quarters.

    The wagon wheel sure makes a nice frame for the bird.

    it looks dangerous in the last shot. What if it got stuck? But you could have helped :) Love them, but as yousay, they are superhard to catch in camera. :)
