This was taken with my iPhone so the quality low. One of the Wrens is sitting just right of center in the photo.

I've got a house wren in one of our bird houses in the front yard. They are hard as hell to take a good photo - very small and very fast.

Over the past 3 or 4 weeks they’ve been in the plant there has been a couple dust ups with other wrens and once with a black capped chickadee. We’ve never had a nest this easy to watch. It‘s certainly easier to see this year being 12 feet a way from my smoking chair than in the past when they’ve been on the other side of the garden in the cat head.F4886216-B61A-4EAD-A482-D2367A10F822.jpeg
 
There was a bald eagle hanging out at the golf course today. Was bummed I didn't have my camera.
