About These Birds
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.
Bewick's Wren
Bewick's Wren is a lively, long-tailed wren of scrubby habitats, chaparral, and open woodlands across western North America. It is brown above with white underparts, a long barred tail held cocked upward, and a bold white eyebrow. It forages actively in dense vegetation for insects and spiders, and the male sings a complex, variable song.
