Excellently photographed and very informative, jak!
Thank you, Mike. We don’t usually see the Cactus Wren unless we go out looking for it in the right environment. We’re always happy when they turn up. So good to hear from you. Have a great week. jak

Great photo series of just one aspect of this birds life. If so inclined to do so, you could try Topaz Denoise. Does pretty good work. You loose a little bit of the very fine detail bit removes all the heavy noise.

Thank you tcthome. Glad you enjoyed these photos. I have Topaz Denoise and when I tried it I thought the test looked worse due to loss of detail that just leaving them as they are. Artistic choice I guess. Hope you have a creative, enjoyable week. jak

Ouch! Nice set!
Steve, so true on the "Ouch!" part. There are times when the bird is just perched on the thorns, but the don't seem bothered by them. It would be interesting to know if their feet have evolved in such a way that they're impervious to the thorns...seems like they must have. Enjoy your week and take some great photos. jak

Beautiful set. Those nests built in cacti are safe from almost all predators except snakes. Even hungry Ravens shy away from them
