Nesting House Wrens
This House Wren family was quite active for several days. Finally got my big gun lens for this shot. A day or so later and these guys had fledged. So very fun to watch!

They won’t stay dry outside the umbrella!
Somehow the bird made a pocket on umbrella to make a nest in a place that gets a fair amount of foot traffic. 3 feet from grill and 2 foot from the house.
I was only about an arm’s length away from the nest when I got this photo. These little birds are fearless!
Being fed right before fledging.
I typically get 7 house wren eggs in this nest box which was specifically designed for wrens. It’s very small.
House Wren egs
This little guy decided that my decorative bird house would make a great home.
I woke up to a lot of chirping one morning to find five baby wrens just left their nest box.
After coming out of his nest. This little guy was having a hard time flying to the top of this fence to join his siblings.
