During my wanderings I am often spied upon by one of our tiniest residents, the Wren (Troglodytes troglodytes) and on a recent chilly early morning stroll this individual was lit up by the rising sun
For a very tiny bird, just 9-10.5 cm in length, it produces one of the loudest songs.
Whether uttered from deep cover or out in the open there is no mistaking the presence of a Wren. FAB.
ahhhhh that was a pleasant two minutes
ReplyDeletevisited my parents' place and watched one through the lounge window singing like mad on a bush. So loud thought it was coming from the TV!
ReplyDeletei love our little loud-mouths here, too!
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite bird songs- pretty shots in the sunlight. Thanks for stopping by my blog!
ReplyDeleteThe Mario Lanza of the bird world. Love 'em!

ReplyDeleteHi Frank, I have one that builds a nest in my garden every year but never uses it.
ReplyDeleteThe song of the Wren is fabulous.
ReplyDeleteOkay, I just had to find the etymology for Troglodyte. C16: via Latin from Greek trōglodutēs one who enters caves, from trōglē hole + duein to enter.
