House Wren's Summer House
This spring we put up an all natural wood wren house. The next day, there was a heavy rain and we saw a sparrow trying to get into the wren house but it couldn't fit through the small opening. We immediately ran out to nearby stores to get a house with a bigger hole. In the emergency, we settled for a tacky red mushroom house from Wal*mart that went unused until now. It looks like we'll have more house wren babies this summer. We hope with the perch on this model, we get to see some babies stepping out before they fly away.
