The Wren on the Feeder
At least I think it’s a Carolina wren. I’m not well versed in wrens, and actually had to go to the bird book to even id it as such — when it first appeared on the feeder, having chased away a chickadee (that it was only slighter larger than), I thought, What a strange looking bird. Hmm.

This little fellow is one of my favorites. I have three or four that hang out around my house year round. They are so perky and vibrant and can get rather vocal if your presence interrupts their daily routine.
I have a small gutter on my backyard patio cover and they love to get into the gutter and rout out insects. It’s funny to watch them….they will go in one end and you can here them pecking around all the way down the gutter until they exit the opposite end.

I would be so worried that they’d get stuck in the gutter!
