Carolina Wren

As I mentioned yesterday, a couple weekends back I was just sitting and enjoying the activity in my backyard. I have a tiny yard, with an interstate immediately behind my back fence, so it is always interesting to me to see how many wild things make their home in and around my little slice of home.

On the weekend I took this picture, there were four Carolina Wrens to be seen: two adults and two recently fledged first year birds. The fledglings were following the adults around begging for food and generally making lots of noise. This adult spent time at one of my suet feeders grabbing some nutty goodness.
