This is the current nest in the bird house located in our side yard. Right off of my mini space I dub the “William G Cathcart Memorial Park”. This was the first time this type of nest was built in any of my birdhouses and my daughter and I had no idea which bird created this masterpiece.

Turns out it is a wren – and since I have seen a Carolina Wren hanging out around the yard and this specific bird house – I figure it is that specific wren. We’ve had quite a few nests made in this house over the years but this was the first time we were amazed and also stumped by a nest.

At this point, the different bird nests we’ve seen through the years have been:

• Black Capped Chickadee
• Robin
• White-Breasted Nuthatch
• Tufted Titmouse

And now the Carolina Wren. I have been into birding for quite a few years ow and I am still excited to see something new and learn something new about birds.
