A bird I hear frequently, but rarely see as it hides among thick shrub and tree branches, showed up in my yard this week.
Not one, but two, chasing each other around the backyard maple tree.
And then one flew to a bird feeder where I watched it from my kitchen window.
A beautiful singer with multiple calls and songs I’m still learning, the Carolina Wren is a year-round bird in our southeast Michigan area.
Its distinctive bold white eyebrow and curved beak on a small rusty-colored bird stands out, there’s no other bird I confuse it with.
My photo might look a little blurry, it was taken through the glass of my kitchen window.
