{Wren's Nest}

Sometimes tiny birds can surprise you with building a nest in a very odd spot...
Look where a cute Carolina wren build her nest!
Inside her nest...
Lots of leaves are being used as entrance...
Yep, inside our greenhouse, on a shelf in an empty pot!
Wondering if it is the same bird, or related to the one we spotted in 2011...

  3. What a clever bird, very safe place for her eggs. But also a bit dumb if the little oness have to learn how to fly.!

  4. Hello Mariette,
    The wren has found paradise in your hot house, probably a constant temperature and an excellent hiding place... well until you found it!!!
    I hope it will have a chance at raising this clutch!
    Keep well and enjoy your sunday :)

  9. Dearest Mariette,
    What a sweet little nest to find in such an odd spot.
    Birds nest where they want to nest!..One year a house wren built her nest in a hanging pot right next to the door onto the deck. The constant coming and going never bothered her and we go a front row lesson in raising baby birds!
    Enjoy this holiday weekend...........*s*

  10. Liebe Mariette,
    da war aber jemand schlau, sich ein Nest so fein zu bauen und gleich auch
    eine geschützte Umgebung dazu -

    liebe Grüße - Ruth

  12. That is indeed a very odd spot! But I guess it's perfect for the wren as it stays dry and safe there. What cute little eggs :-) I hope you get to see the baby birds!

  13. I am visiting with you via Tamago. So nice to meet you. Carolina Wren's are such entertaining little birds. We had one to build a nest inside my straw hat in the garage one year! Your photos are beautiful. Have a nice week. I am following now.

  20. Wie schön! Hast Du den Vogel schon gesehen? Im Waldgarten fanden wir auch Nester, doch im jetzigen Garten noch keine einziges. Aber unterm Dachvorsprung nisteten Vögel, da komme ich allkerdings nicht hin.

    Alles Liebe auch hier

  21. My dear friend. I had to come here again as this is the blog you write that I saved so I could comment without having an impossible time with my friends' Google Plus. However, today and yesterday, I cannot find a way to comment even on this one except to come to this blog about the wrens. I wish it were less difficult. I think Google + wants to make people come to G+. I'm not sure why it is so difficult at times to comment.

  22. I am afraid I am here again as I cannot get to your latest blog unless this is it. xxoo
