Getting to know "my" Carolina Wrens

Before I started watching and feeding birds, I am sure I never even would have noticed them. Even in beginning days, they probably would have blended in with the other birds of their size and color.

But now becoming on of my favorite birds! I have seen two of them at a time, so I have at least two. They do go to my feeders, but they are quite diligent in running around my patio looking in every last nook and cranny for food. They seem to love to hide under chairs and bbqs.

The best thing about them is they don't scare when I open the door like most birds. I flip them walnuts and the come running after them. They are tenacious in jabbing them and getting them into consumable smaller pieces!

What a great bird! I am putting up a birdhouse soon, will be interesting to see if maybe they make residence!
