Description

I was doing some weeding in our garden when I kept hearing this House Wren calling. I wasn’t surprised, because I had noticed, in the nesting box that is on our garden fence, the distinctive nest of small twigs that the House Wrens always build. It seems late in the season, but perhaps this male was trying to attract another mate. Our nesting boxes attract a sequence of birds: first the Eastern Bluebirds, followed by Tree Swallows; and then the House Wrens.
