These delightful little birds have a variety of names. My favourite is "Fairey Wren". To sit quietly in my garden and have 5 or 6 of these flitting through the shrubs eating insects and sometimes picking up crumbs between my feet is something I treasure. This is a male in full breeding colours. Non breeding males and females are a dull brown colour.

As beautiful a little bird as I have seen Frank. I can see why you would enjoy watching them hop about.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

Have never seen a wren like this Frank - he's a beauty - it's easy to see why you enjoy having them around.
