After a day of anxiety about the young Carolina wren getting out of its nest in the garage early, I can appreciate your picture. The parents still have not allowed me a good picture, but I believe the little one has made it all the way out into the big world where he will have a better chance against my Clancy catching him.
Lovely, not the most colourful, but there is something about them that makes you go ahhhh!
