Wren

This little devil gave me a run round for quite some time diving in and out of the long grass, just like a little Ninja ;-)

The wren is a tiny brown bird, although it is heavier, less slim, than the even smaller goldcrest. It is dumpy, almost rounded, with a fine bill, quite long legs and toes, very short round wings and a short, narrow tail which is sometimes cocked up vertically. For such a small bird it has a remarkably loud voice and nippy, It is the commonest UK breeding bird, although it suffers declines during prolonged, severely cold winters. (S) (C)
