wrens

Chirpy, chirpy, cheep-cheep!

This little wren looks so fluffy, sitting outside my breakfast room window this morning. He even let me take his picture from fairly close up.
Well, this is quite poor photography. I was trying to see if I could get a shot of the gold finches on the wire tube feeder that goes up to the top of this photo. If you squint really hard, you can see their two bellies though the feeder screen!
And here’s Mr. Squirrel. He and TWO of his buddies showed up this morning after I fed everyone. I can tolerate them, but let’s not get greedy, guys!

Meet the wrens!


I was out feeding the birds this morning when I heard the familiar “cheep cheep cheep” of baby birds. 

I was delighted to find that Mr. and Mrs. Wren had made a nest and a little family in the gourd I bought a few months ago. 
 I thought it was very colorful and a welcoming home, and apparently they did, too!
Mrs. fussed mightily at me when I tried to get close and see the babies inside, but they were too far back to get a glimpse of them, much less a photo, so I left them in peace.



Cute, isn’t it?
