Wren at Work.......


The house is in use this year with the wren coming and going quickly to feed her young.  I hope they like moths as she picked it up from the apple tree right next to the shed.





The house was put up to be decoration as I thought the hole looked too small for a bird.  A student at school had made it and then tossed it into the dumpster after it had been graded.  I painted the roof of the house and nailed it together with some bigger nails as it was a little flimsy.

What a great shot. I liked your story about the babies being fed a moth! Seems like that would be very dry!!!

I hope we can put out some birdhouses next year.

So cute.
I have baby wrens also.
The nest is in a plant hanged under the porch. The last time the nest was in a small birdhouse we brought back from Martinique Island, hanged under the porch too.

Lovely capture on the bird’s house! I too have one yet to be fixed

Brilliant photograph, Larry. Wren's are favourites with me. They once made a nest in a flower basket on the house wall. I was so thrilled to have them there.

Fruit and Cookies....

 We have a bounty of fruit for Thanksgiving visitors and also some chocolate chip cookies. It is all good eating.
