No, I'm not reporting on barnyard fowl, but something more entertaining.   In the last few days, a pair of Carolina Wrens have taken to using an old coconut husk feeder (purchased in Jamaica!) as a roost.  I have a few tools secured within, but this doesn't bother the birds.  Nor are they too troubled by close proximity to the house.  I have startled them in the early hours of the morning when checking feeders, but even with that they are back for more the next night.  What a wonderful development!  For years I have failed to excite Wrens about nesting too close to the house, and here they are crashing for the night.  What will happen next?Tuesday, September 7, 2010
