Yesterday a Carolina Wren sang and was observed briefly at the J.C. Hormel
Nature Center in Mower County. The bird was behind the interpretive center
to the right of the bird feeders. It was foraging on the ground when seen.
It was heard singing further down the trail by the stream. This is
Just as the light began to fail last evening (10/21), a wren flew
into our feeders. At first, looking like a Red-breasted Nuthatch on
steroids, binoculars revealed an adult Carolina Wren. It moved about
the feeder giving us good looks. It made one more appearance ten
minutes later where
There is a Carolina Wren in our yard. Singing on occasion and coming
to the feeders seldom.

There has been some excellent dialogue on the identity of the heard bird on
the Aitkin field trip Saturday.
The bird sang repeatedly for a couple of minutes, then shut down. The song
could easily be transliterated as Peter, Peter, Peter, but with an
occasional two note ending as well, and
The plot thickens - other strong birders have mentioned being fooled by
Peter, Peter, Peter Baltimore Oriole calls as well.
Love having four options for an audio ID:). Next time, we tie the bird down
and tickle it until it confesses.
All kidding aside, thanks for the commentary - good

in the middle of the block bounded by Wheeler, Goodrich, Amherst, and

Yesterday at the MOU Paper Session I chatted with a number of folks

As predicted, one of the wrens dropped
About 15 minutes ago my wife said to me, Isn't that the Carolina

it was. She suggested getting he meal worms out and filling the bowls.

the Carolina Wren songs
It seems the CAROLINA WREN has remained in the neighborhood despite

altogether absent.
