It appeared right below my kitchen window

And a very nice little wren it is too. I've noticed quite a drop in their numbers this winter.

Lovely.

Haven't seen one of these in my garden for a while now.

Had one that would loudly tell me off as I scattered food at the top of the garden in the mornings.

Saw one last week going through a clump of wallflowers for a spider or two.

Nice to see you have lost the foggy conditions up there

Chris.

Thanks for the comments.

@ Chris - it has been a lovely sunny day today but bitterly cold! The fog last week was horrendous!

Not seen my little wren for a while. I used to love watching it dart about in the hedgerow. Great photo!

Thank you for your comments. Do hope you see your wren again soon. It is still very cold for the tiny little mites. Es

I have seen quite alot along the coast near me. Among the long grass and reeds nearby .I wonder if they migrate small distances in cold weather or maybe all the local birds have took to the warmer coastal tide line .

A bird of prey (sorry, only a novice so no idea what, but it was quick!) tried its luck a few weeks ago and swooped on it but the wren was too quick, hope it didn't try again!
