Carolina Wren DSC_7939
These little guys are so funny. When the micro sprinklers come on they like to get a shower. They will jump on a birdbath or a plant and shower away. The wrens don't bathe in the shallow birdbaths, instead they jump all around the edges of it as the sprinkler water rains down on them. They do enjoy a drink from the birdbath though. This birdbath is currently placed just outside the living room window so yes, the image was taken through that window.
Unfortunately something did get to the eggs that the wrens put in the flowerpot outside the window. I believe they started a new nest in a location I call Orchid Cove. That's little nook next to the front entry that houses, you guessed it, orchids :) Perhaps they will have better luck there.
I hope your day is full of beauty and joy. Happy snapping.
