Saucy and Sassy Carolina Wren

The Carolina wren is among my favorite birds. I love the way it holds its tail straight up in the air and the way it sings so loudly. You’d never expect such a tiny bird to be able to belt out the songs it does! I also like its scowl; it always appears to be grumpy about something. A little bird that’s big on personality, that’s for sure. Another thing I like about wrens is the way they build tiny igloo type nests inside potted plants like ferns and such. I’ve often watered ferns and was almost hit in the face by a fleeing wren. When something goes awry, like a snake showing up where it doesn’t belong, they sound a warning. If ever you hear a wren chirping loudly and complaining incessantly, you’d better check things out; it’s probably trying to point out some danger. This little wren was sitting on the wall of my patio looking for something to nibble on. He gave me all of two seconds to snap his photo and then he was off like a jet.

    I love the green background with this cute, fiesty looking wren. His little tail sticking up made me chuckle at how precious he is.

    What a sweetie, Bonnie! I can understand how they win you over with their cheeky antics and attitude! Nice to have a natural alarm system – our blackbirds perform that function for us! Like Darryl says, wrens in the UK have loud voices – in fact so do our little robins! When it comes to singing, size certainly doesn’t matter! ;o)
