It was so nice to see this little guy (Pipsqueak) on the brush pile over the weekend.
Carolina Wren
We live slightly above the northern most tip of their range,
so they are not often seen here at this time of year.
Our autumn was warm, and before today, we have only had one covering of snow,
that disappeared quite quickly.
I hope the brush pile will help protect him over the winter, because
it's -6 this morning, with a light covering of snow.
I think winter has arrived!

ReplyDeleteHe really is a tiny cutie! Wonderful shots and isn't it nice to see someone who doesn't visit so often?
ReplyDeletethis is one of my favs. he (it has to be a male) because all the noise & showing off it does. i love the tune he sings. gorgeous bird. ( :
ReplyDeleteYou sure make good use of that camera lens! I didn't think wrens would stay around this late.
ReplyDeleteadore the wrens! such cute little sprites. when i saw 'pipsqueak', i immediately thought you were sharing one of your squirrels, though. :)
ReplyDeleteVery nice photographed Karen......nice done.
ReplyDeleteYou do get the most beautiful captures of the birds -- actually everything you photograph, Karen! They never fail to amaze me! I wish I could do one tenth as well as you!! Amazing! This one is such a little beauty! What a lovely way to start my day!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a little cutie! Do you ever see owls? I just read an article about them. I'll try to remember to write about it.
ReplyDeleteThese are one of my favorites!! They are so sweet and so darn cute. You got some fantastic captures of this little one.
ReplyDeleteWonderful shots of the wren.
ReplyDeleteThese are just amazing Karen!! I have a "tail less" one at my feeders, he won't pose for a picture!!
ReplyDeleteI only know this bird from blogs but Pipsqueak is so cute and I'd love to see him (or one of his close relatives) in real life someday. Glad he came back.
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute bird! Lovely images.

ReplyDeleteKaren, we had two of these Carolina Wrens trapped on our porch this morning. I'm happy to see them around here since we changed from growing zone 7A to zone 7B , thanks to Climate Change. Dianne
ReplyDeleteKnowing how those little guys are so active, like our Common Wren, I think your pictures are brilliant Karen.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your kind thoughts, the glass or two of Grenache Noir is hitting a sweet spot.
Beautiful images... it's a stunning little bird.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute little bird! Wonderful shots!
ReplyDeleteWhat a treat. He wouldn't brighten even the darkest days.
ReplyDeletegreat pics of a terrific little bird! and what a great nickname! *LOL*
ReplyDeletehe sure is a serious looking little fellow though isnt he, maybe you can get him to "smile" in the next set of pics? *LOL*
You did well to get such good shots karen, hope the brush gets it through the winter.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Gordon.
Oh gosh, I do not know how in the world those tiny birds survive that kind of cold! Sweet shots!

ReplyDeleteHow lovely to see a wren this late in the year. We haven't had them around for quite awhile. Lovely photos.
ReplyDeletewow. He is so cute:!:. How is your hawk?
ReplyDeleteSweet little wren and amazing photos as always Karen..I think you had mentioned a bird bath in a comment. If you have an outside plug, it is easy to find one. I have used Amazon or other places. I have one on the deck railing and one on the ground for rabbits and deer.. They are as busy as the feeders...Michelle
ReplyDeletewhoops..it was Denise thinking about a bird bath...Michelle
ReplyDeleteCarolina Wren is certainly more common than it formerly was here in southern Ontario, but I think the cold temperatures we are getting so early in the winter are going to push the species to its limit.
ReplyDeleteWonderful pictures and so a beautful bird
ReplyDeleteThese are wonderful pic`s of Pip. He is adorable, Nicely done.
