House Wren

House Wren. Batiquitos Lagoon, Carlsbad, California. June 1, 2014. Greg Gillson.

Shades of brown and gray. Here's a pic of a House Wren. It's not a very good photo, but I'm running out of photos, so this is what we get. I'll have to get out with my camera again soon to replenish my supply.

House Wren is found year-round here. I'm not sure, though, if the birds here in winter are the same individuals that stay to nest, or are perhaps winter visitors from the north.
