Carolina Wren.....

It rained all day yesterday, so I didn't think I would have anything to post today........but this cute little Carolina Wren showed up out front to try to get some suet. He was really working hard at it!
I was a little worried that he'd get his head stuck in the cage.

He finally moved around to the side where he could reach better.
Pausing for a rest.
Glaring at me for making him work so hard.
Posing.....I love their pretty color.
"sigh......this is work!"
I'll dedicate this post to my blogger friend "Jenny Wren" over in England :-) If you haven't been following her posts about her visit to the Isles of Scilly, you should stop by her blog.

AW! Thanks Mary! Very kind of you!You're a sweetie! I love that Carolina Wren, I wish we had it over here. We only have one wren, the Winter Wren, but that's a lovely bird too! I shouldn't be greedy! (-:

Very nice wren photo series. They do sometimes scare us with the things they do to get to the feed we put out for them.

I love your little wren. I had one several years ago, and left. Maybe he came to your yard...

I love Carolina Wrens, Mary... They can sing better than most birds. We have them around here --but not in large groups.

Hugs,
Betsy

Oh, Mary, I see you have lots more beautiful shots. I so love wrens. I doubt you can imagine how much. My pair of house wrens moved on when their babies left the nest; I totally missed that.

I forgot to mention in my email...that photo of the praying mantis and hummingbird was amazing. Roger could hardly believe it, either.
