House Wren
The House Wren is one of the most common songbirds in North America. They can be found in backyards and forests wherever you care to look during nesting season.
However, capturing an image that I like is never as easy as catching a glance of one of these omnipresent birds.
One afternoon at Kurt Gondry State Park in Wyoming, I went wandering for anything that looked good. Several species were present in huge numbers, so I thought I would try to capture some images of the high visibility birds after spending the morning looking for warblers.
Suddenly I looked to my side and spotted this guy perched so wonderfully against a hilly backdrop of sage brush and rock. I like that the wren looks relaxed as the grasshopper appears deceased. The little guy can enjoy a minute before taking it to its house which is mounted on a tree to the left.
