Another Cute Baby Carolina Wren.

I saw this cute baby Carolina Wren on top of a pile of more baby Carolina Wrens (his brothers and sisters). By the time I got my camera they were everywhere! He flew next to me and I took some cute pics of him.

I saw this cute baby Carolina Wren playing hide and seek with his six other brothers and sisters, but he never knew where to hide!

Tight Squeeze

There were two days between all nestlings hatching, with the first hatched visibly larger. While fledging this jumbo fledgling hogged the entrance hole. A determined sibling, ready to fledge pushed and shoved, and finally squeezed underneath the entrance hog, making double decker fledglings. The smaller fledgling continued its mission and managed to shove the larger sibling out the hole with itself right under it. I’ve seen many birds fledge but this was the funniest, and one that I will always remember.

Where’s Mama?

Wrens in their Nest

Our tool shed is a favorite location for the wrens to nest, and these four babies were easy to photograph, as long as I kept still when the parents entered with food. As I was getting closer to the nest, the baby birds thought I was bringing food, and I captured all four mouths open at once! Mama Wren promptly scolded me as she slipped in with their meal.

Solo Wren Fledgling Finally Leaving Nest

This little wren fledgling was the only one of the clutch of eggs to hatch. The nest was inside our tool shed, up high on the wall, and when the baby left the nest it stayed in the shed for a day before making his way outside. The parent wrens came to feed it and tried to coax it outside the shed, but this little one took its time.
