About These Birds
Band-backed Wren
The Band-backed Wren is a large wren found in humid forests and forest edges from Mexico through Central America to northwestern South America, belonging to the family Troglodytidae. Weighing about 30.3g with a wingspan of 15.7cm, it has boldly barred upperparts and lives in noisy social groups. It forages actively through dense vegetation for insects and small invertebrates.
Eurasian Wren
The Eurasian wren is one of the smallest birds in Europe but possesses an astonishingly loud song for its size. Males build multiple dome-shaped nests, from which the female selects one to line and use. In British folklore, the wren is known as the king of birds for outwitting the eagle in a flying contest.
