Acrobatic Marsh Wren
Often seen "doing the splits" as each foot grasps a different stem, Marsh Wrens are tiny, vocal inhabitants of (where else?) marshes. I have seen one every year in the exact same spot in the marsh at Lake St. Clair Metropark. As they do not overwinter in the North, it's pretty unlikely that this is the same wren that I see every year. This would be a good candidate for banding to determine whether it is the same bird.
