Wrens are such wonderful creatures. They are everywhere, and they sing almost constantly.
I couldn't agree more In the book "The Great Dicorce" CS Lewis describes describes the sound of all creation breaking into song as the sun turns dawn into morning. Creation had to sing. The wrens remind me of this every time see and hear them. They seem compelled to sing.
The day before yesterday, 11/7/23 I decided to try the woodpile in the late afternoon. It's normally dark and shadowy there but since the time change and the sun we'll past overhead it was much darker than I anticapated. At first I thought all the birds had turned in for the night. Then the little Winter Wren arrived like a iet propelled shadow. This cute little ball of energy seems to need to sing. The spot where it is standing is the highest point on the woodpile. The Carolina Wren soon accepted the song challenge and began letting the entire wood know who is really the song king of the pile, then just as quickly it switched its attention to finding dinner.
The Carolina Wrens are here in Delaware year round. The Winter Wrens are Norther birds who comes south for the winter. Their nonbreeding range covers everything South of the Greatlakes as far South as Texas, from the Atlantic to Central USA . They nest North of the Great lakes, some as far North as Southern Alaska.

Jeez, Bill, instead of letting them sit there and look beautiful, you ought to train them to start flying logs to your back deck when you need them 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
