Ha! Brings back memories! Decades ago I was homeless, living in the woods for 4-1/2 years. While it was certainly an unhappy existence, one of the bright spots was how the wrens would visit me in my camp. Knowing nothing about these birds, I was amazed how cheeky and bold they were, closely examining me from inches away. The little varmints used to fill my hat with debris while it hung next to my lawn chair. I could never catch them in the act, but would discover their mischief when I grabbed it to head into town. Another fearless visitor was the ovenbird. They would stop in twice a year on their migration. If I sat still, they would often forage on the ground right at my feet. If I moved, they would only retreat a short distance, then get back to work. Once the local wildlife gets used to you being there 24/7, you're not considered a threat anymore. I even had bobcats stroll by a few feet away without even a sideways glance at me.
Great story, thanks for sharing. I hope you are not homeless any more.
@@mjremy2605 No, I've been living in a house for almost twenty years and I'm doing my best to live frugally and debt-free. However, with the way politics, society, and the economy are going, I'm not very optimistic about the younger generation's future prospects. I predict the rise of permanent third-world style shantytowns in America soon.
Nature is amazing and it draws you close to good experiences. Please take care of yourself. I am positive there are people who love you and pray for you. Don’t give up! Be happy!
I hope you have a wonderful life , I feel sorry for anyone without a home, take care my friend.🏴🏴🏴🏴
I rescued a male Carolina wren it got caught in a glue trap in my boss's garage. I got it unstuck from the trap but he lost his tail feathers. I called my vet. They wanted to put him to sleep so I decided to let him go in my back yard. And two months later he showed up on my patio with a female. They made a nest on my patio in a bird house. He had three babies wren's.
You produce the most enjoyable videos, Lesley!
I'm really happy that you enjoy them. Thank so much 🥰
I came here to say that!
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
these little cuties are just so too much...have lots of trees and white breasted and brown headed versions and they never disappoint...😍😍
I love Carolina Wrens so much! Love their birdsong. Bless their little hearts. Thank you for this lovely video! ♥️♥️♥️
I showed Jamie a video of one the other day, it was protesting about something it didn't like. All he could say was " I can see you now if we had them in our area. I'd never see you again. You be with them all of the time" hahaha 😄oh my gosh, he knows me too well. I love them. Thanks for the kind comment 💙💜
@@LesleytheBirdNerd yeah a new bird video 😊
There’s a Carolina Wren in my yard I named “Peanut” they bring a peanut from my feeders to my patio door. So cute, they look like they have winged eyeliner.
@@shellyrae777 Aw, Peanut! What a cute name for a Wren! ☺️🥜 Just this morning, I saw a Carolina Wren take a peanut and go under my Dad’s grill and then near the steps in the patio. So adorable! 🥰
@@BirdsandGhibliFan Aww that’s adorable. Thank you, the name really does fit. I always laugh when I see them eating peanuts, they’re so small, one peanut is probably like a bag for us! Lol
My favorite bird.
Nice video. 😊
Thanks for watching
Fantastic video. Thanks.
They call my home their home. I have a long joyful relationship with carolina wrens.
Nicely done! Thank you!
What fun little birds. One time at night, my sister opened the front door to grab a package and one shot past her ear upstairs, and into my room. It was an ordeal trying to get the lad out, but I got a tiny, striped feather souvenir out of it!
My family still jokes about Carolina Wrens breaking into our house.
Hahahah oh my gosh, wow! That must have been something. I once had a Blue Jay in my home, in fact, it was Blue. I'll never forget it. I went on to bed the night before and I asked my husband to close the living room window before he went to bed. He forgot, and the next morning I heard some noise. Here was Blue inside trying to get back out but didn't know how to. He must have panicked. I had no idea how I was going to catch him. I just walked up slowly and gently put my hand out. At first, he tried to get away but then ended up in the palm of my outstretched hand. I slowly walked over to the window, he stayed perfectly still the entire time. I put my hand out the window and off he flew. All the other jays including his mate Sweet Girl were outside in the birch trees. What a story he must have told them. So sweet.
@@LesleytheBirdNerd
Oh my goodness, I LOVE your story of Blue getting inside and you helping him back out!
@@vickibowen5617 I'm so glad you enjoyed it. I'll never forget the look on Blue's face that morning. Oh my
@@LesleytheBirdNerd That sounded absolutely magical! What an experience for the both of you!
@@LesleytheBirdNerd Maybe Blue figured you had visited his home so often, he ought to return the favor! Great stories, both!
I absolutely love these friendly little birds! They have such a huge, commanding song coming from such an itty-bitty little bird. They do love filling up on the meal worms and grab their worms in between the Blue Birds, Nuthatch's, Tufted Titmice and Robin's grabbing them up too. The Bluebirds seem to think the mealworms are only there for them and try to run everything else off.
Do you use dried mealworms? I have no luck with them. How do you feed the mealworms?
🥰🐦🐦
Carolina Wrens are the best!
I have a pair visiting my feeders!! Love them!!
Everything about these birds is absolutely amazing and I will never get tired of watching them in my yard or footage of them on the internet!! They are so clever, cute, and have such adorable personalities. When I was a teenager our Carolina Wrens Jenny (who ate out of my hand!) and her husband Boogity would nest in various items we'd hang up for them. Jenny knew me so well she would let me take pictures of the babies every day. She was the best outdoor bird friend I've ever had and forever endeared Wrens to my heart.
Lovely video. Thank you so much! 💜
I love my wrens!!
Omg the Photoshop of the wren in the car
So cute 🥰
I love listening to these cute little birds
Tea kettle, tea kettle, tea kettle

What a super sweet bird! I love wrens!!! I saw a very cheeky tiny bird grabbing big walnuts from the squirrel nut bowl and dodging squirrels then gleefully flying off with his prize. He had this white streak near the eyes, tail up at 45 degrees, slender curved beak that was meant for insects not seeds, and wondered what bird that was. Not a finch with that beak. Looked like a chipping sparrow, but they are more docile and fat beak like all seed eaters. It turned out this was a Bewick's Wren! Bold as brass this tiny thing stealing nuts and ignoring the bird seeds. I love this guy. He hops around hoppity, hop, hop, hop, checks everything out, chirps his songs, and visits me daily. I have to put up nesting boxes. I must keep him around, my little Wren.
I adore their feisty selfs. They're so bold, scolding us for living in the same place they do 😂 I started buying meal worms as a peace offering lol. I have a hilarious picture of one scolding the security camera in mid air 🤣 They also let my son know who's boss when he works on the car, they sit a few feet away when he's laying under the car and give him heck. Very entertaining as they hop around looking for insects, and we have plenty of them here by the river.
Love these babies 😅😅😅
Little feathered angels. 💕
Beautiful!
Awesome video!
Adorable little birdies!
your videos are so awesome!
Thank you very much
I love these little personalities! Cute, smart sassy and curious
❤🥰
👍🏼
The birds make nests in the letters of the Walgreens sign.
My little Carolina Wren, "Homer" tried to nest in my shed but I discouraged him. Instead, I hung up a nest box, which a house wren soon claimed. Poor guy, he sings everyday to attract a mate, but no luck. Meanwhile, Homer moved on. Such is the life of our adorable wrens! Thank you for this informative video.
Last year Carolina wrens make their nest in my husband jet sky, he don’t use the jet sky for a long time 😆😆
In south east Kentucky We love our little CWs, such entertaining characters and beautiful songs. Thanks for sharing.
Love this!!
Thanks. There is a pair that lives by the creek very near me. I can hear them, but rarely get to see them. I saw one once this year at a make shift feeder eating, but so far not again. There was a Winter Wren that I would see at my parents place, always a joy.
Official state bird of South Carolina
Carolina Wrens are quickly becoming my favorites!
Don’t leave the garage door open. True, very true…
Just noticed this morning a Carolina Wren building a nest under our canopy. It should be fun to watch its progress.
Thank you they're such a joy to watch 😊 from denmark
very sweet and interesting video.
Thank you very much!
Cute little fluffs with mustaches
I lived in North East Florida. I built nesting boxes, under my roof overhang. All facing my windows. I could watch from the beginning of the nests construction to after the babies left the nests.
I love them
We have a pair nesting under a Christmas tree stand out on the upstairs balcony. This pair has been together for several years. Beautiful to see!
Wrens, always making a nest in my chickens nesting boxes. I do love them though
These birds are everywhere in the neighborhoods in North Carolina. They have a distinct posture. They sometimes scream very loudly. They used to always build nests in different places in my parent's shed. When I would go into the shed, often a few wrens would frantically fly out, screaming.
So cute amazing 🙋♀️
❤❤❤
They're prolific bug eaters. Fantastic for gardeners.
I've found wren nests in boots, old coffee cans, wooden shelves, hanging pot plants, old hats, a golf cart dashboard and a big exhaust pipe.
Beautiful video made out of great footage 👍🏼
My favorite bird!
Awesome video Lesley! Thank you for the credit
No problem, Thank you so much for the wonderful videos. Now time to get to the Eastern Bluebird one :)
These little birds love my porch soffit ......Last year my Wife and I watched all the little ones leave the nest.... It was quite the sight!
Thanks for sharing another wonderful video like always 🐦❤️🤗
Such a lovely little bird.
I giggled when you said they'll nest in flower pots and laughed out loud when you warned not to leave garage door open. Last year they tried to set up house in a flower pot in my garage!
Thank you! I have just discovered what these two little birds are that have adopted one of my potted plants to build a nest. I’ve lived in this house for 37 years. Never saw nor heard them until recently. First it was the male calling for a mate(that was my thinking anyway). And it took about a month before him and his mate to show up on my covered patio. And they immediately started building the nest. They don’t seem to mind me sitting out there and dont pay any attention to my cat. My cat has never been a bird catcher. He doesn’t pay any attention to the birds either. I’m so excited! I’m a bird lover, but certainly not an expert at all. So, this is all new to me with wrens. It amazed me how loud the male’s voice is. But I love it. It’s music to my ears. Anyway, thanks so much for the learning lesson about wrens!
They are adorable! I’ve had many Carolina wrens nest throughout my yard-atop spotlights under eaves, in empty flower pots, thru holes in open brickwork and in garden umbrella ribs. They are not at all afraid and are so much fun to befriend!
Thank you, very interesting.
Glad you enjoyed it!
So cute and grumpy looking!!
💚🐦💚 THANKS 👍
You are very welcome. Have a wonderful Sunday 🥰
Add to the housing list dryer vent without a cover and old vacuum cleaner on front porch.
Almost 200,000 subscribers! Much deserved. Congratulations 🎉
Yeah! Thanks, it's pretty crazy 🥰💙💜🐦🥂
I LOVE my wrens, I built several “traditional” houses and put them around my house, they didn’t approve. One set has built in a cardboard box that I left on my picnic table, and has hatchlings, so it’s staying until they are done. I’ll be building several of the nest boxes soon. Thanks for the video.😊
Wrens are pretty amazing. 3 years ago I forgot to put out the wren bird house, they went into my garden shed through an open window and found the bird house and used it. I got scolded when I opened the door.
Haha, oh my gosh what a character they are.
Thanks for all your videos. I love learning about the tiny beast around my backyard.
❤
Cute birds. I enjoy learning about the monogamous bird species. It is such a sweet thing.
Ohh sooo cute
I live in central Oklahoma and have spotted these little birds at my feeders. Thank you for the videos, Bird Nerd☺️
NC here. We had a hanging flower pot on the front porch that they nested into. It hosted a hutch of chicks after they hatched. The fledged a few weeks later, but I swear that they return and keep singing their happy songs for us. I even got pictures of their hungry little mouths when they thought I was bringing them food.
Thanks for sharing 👍 😊
Lesley---years ago when I was stationed in S.C. these little birds were all over...had them also on Long Island ...since I retired upstate NY haven't seen any...I forgot how wonderful they are.......snow coming Monday night have to stock up on Peanuts...thanks for always having such nice videos....great way to relax on sunday
Very interesting, since Carolina Wrens are the state bird of South Carolina. 😁
@@BirdsandGhibliFan Thanks for this info ...unfortunately 50 yrs ago when in the Navy and home-ported in S.C. I had not acquired my love of birds and nature....I have grown to love them dearly
The Carolina wren is my favorite backyard bird. They're just so cute and spunky. Because they're so active they're really fun to watch. One year we had a little family that would walk along my fence all in a row to my suet feeder everyday. I just love them.
A family of Carolina Wrens lining up in a row on the fence. How cute! 🥰
This is one of my favorite sounds of spring. POOOOR SAM PEABODY PEABODY PEABODY
Love these videos, but the ones on wrens are definitely my favorite!
We had a little Carolina wren nest in blanket we left outside for way too long. It kept raining, so we just left it outside to dry, and then we'd forget about it again. But before we knew it a little nest formed in the innermost part of it. I never got to see the baby leave the nest but I did get a glimpse of him sitting outside the next one day.
These wrens are such little darlings 😊 I feel fortunate to have some here in SW New Hampshire visit my feeders. Thank you for another wonderful video, Lesley!
You are so welcome!
I took a small, quart sized flower pot. Drilled holes top & bottom (mounted it so what would be bottom was level chanted so naught slides out). Hung it under eave 8ft off ground. There have been residents every year but last year.
We just had some CW babies leave their nest. The mom and dad worked day and night to feed their babies and it's so sweet how dedicated they are to their young. They made a nest in a basket on my back porch where I kept my pins for my clothesline. Mom and Dad are still hanging around my house because one baby is having a hard time learning to fly. They don't leave that baby's side. It's so heartwarming to see how nuturing they are.
Yes! I caught this just in time. I love when you talk about native southern (US) birds. My dad once had Carolina wrens nest in his lawnmower. Fortunately, the babies had long since fledged by the time he found out. 😆 These birds are quite bold once they get used to you. When I sit quiet after setting out peanut chips, they sometimes come right up close to me.
Great video, we love our wrens! We have a pair that nest on a little platform under our deck each year. They have the sweetest (and loudest) song... And the cutest little hop about. We enjoy them so much. Think we might try a nesting box this year. Can't wait!! 💕
Carolina Wrens lived in a hanging potted flower right near my front door one year and in a box of rags in my garage... using a missing window in the door to come and go.
Fascinating! Thank you so for the video and wonderful information ❤
I went to the paper box one morning and our favorite Carolina wren had put several sticks on top of my paper and laid an egg on it ! Needless to say, I did not read the paper for a while !
One nested inside a bag of playground sand inside a shed at our house. The boards on that little shed had some openings big enough for them to enter and return, so no worries. Sweet little birds, with such a beautiful voice. They are my favorites.
Just bought a Tweethearts Blue Jay tee - can't wait to wear it! 💙💙
Aww Thanks so much. I hope you like it. I have the sweat shirt version and wear it every day. The design is from a picture I took of Blue and Sweet Girl several years ago. :)
@@LesleytheBirdNerd I remember reading that. I love your Blue Jays as much as I love mine - so it's like an homage to my own crew! xoxo 🥰
Hi Lesley!
What timing you have!
Opened my BBQ lid yesterday and it was full of moss and sticks etc. Just used it 2 days before. Took out the nest material last night to cook and then felt bad about all the Wrens hard work so I put it back in this morning and the pair added to it all day. It’s theirs as long as they need it now. Over the last 4 years they have tried to build in the garage and my shed. They are so industrious!
Thanks for another great video! It was like you knew I found that yesterday. Lol
Hahaha that's awesome.
Nice of you to have a change of mind. Those birds something else. What a time I'd have with them if they were here in my location. Glad you enjoyed. Have a great Sunday!
I recently discovered a wren nest, with babies, inside a hollow metal post, used as a steel target stand on my backyard shooting range. Not sure how long before they move out, but it sounds like I may have to build a new target stand if they're gonna stick around...
I currently have four baby carolina wrens in my flower plant and I see their mother feed them everyday lol
Nice job Lesley!
Thank you!
Those little buggers always try to build a nest around my patio. 😁
I absolutely love Carolina Wrens! They are so nosey and nimble. And yes, I accidentally trapped one in my garage last year, but thankfully I found him the next day and he was fine. :) And LOL at multiple choices of a house and a side entrance. Sounds like a human couple going house hunting. Once when I was growing up a pair nested in a concrete flower pot we had, dug down about a half inch into the soil, then built a dome over the top. Last year a pair nested in the rafters of my patio. When I'm digging around the yard I leave the insects laying around for the wrens and robins.
I think they have been some of the more committed birds couples I've ever seen or been informed of on this channel since the male even creates multiple nest sites? Talk about making sure only the best of the best for his wife! Everything down to the way the still feed their children after they've fledged.
When I was little my mother stored her dust mop with soft side up in the corner of a largely-enclosed back porch. Of course, that was an invitation to a pair of wrens to build a nest. Mom was unhappy that she had to buy another mop but it was great waiting for the eggs to hatch and then the fledglings to leave.
Thanks Leslie. Enjoyed your informative narrative about these lovely birds....
Great vid as always.
Summer 2022, Austin, TX - super hot, almost no rain.
Wren nest on front porch. At one point, a baby was crying constantly. His 2 nest mates had died and had maggots. Just a nightmare.
We took him out, put in new nest material. We kept a water bowl there for them. The parents resumed feeding. And soon he fledged. I hope he has a great life.
