About 15 minutes ago my wife said to me, "Isn't that the Carolina Wren on the feeder by the shed?" I grabbed the bins and sure enough it was. She suggested getting he meal worms out and filling the bowls.
First, I grabbed my PDA with bird songs and went outside and played the Carolina Wren songs and calls. Soon, the bird landed six feet from me on the chimes hanging by the deck door. Then it flew to the burr oak and started singing. I turned off the player and listened to it chatter away. Then .... a second wren showed up. They both began calling. I played some more and they responded. THERE ARE TWO CAROLINA WRENS HANGING AROUND MY BACK YARD!!!! I put out worms in five places. I hope they get some before the chickadees find them. Bill O.
