Two males fighting for territory landed in my lap while I was kneeling to plant onions last spring. It was so ferocious they didn't even register where they were, small but mighty!

Wrens are so precious

My dad had a wren nest for several years in his workshop. She decided that his box of nails was exactly the right size for her nest. Dad picked it up to get some nails and there was this tiny bird looking back at him, utterly fearless.

Beautiful video! But their song would have deserved some more attention. These tiny birds have huge voices, they belong to our finest singers 🤩

Wrens are my absolute favourite bird. I love to watch them zipping around the garden like demented little brown pingpong balls :)

My favorite bird! I love to hear them sing at dawn. Someone described his singing as “the pinnacle of singing complexity”

For me, the wren is the most adorable little bird!!!!

I love the little dance they do!

I've noticed how loudly wrens can sing, for such a tiny bird.. Nice one Liam! 🎶🌟👍

I still have a farthing with a picture of a wren on it that I've had since I was a child. That's one quarter of an old penny, pre decimalisation.

A mother bird wren made a nest in our out-houses soffit boards. We documented her for a few weeks and fed her mealworms out of cat bowl. We named her tinkerbel and she revisits frequently!

They are gorgeous little birds I love seeing them in the garden

Wrens are so fascinating, when i first heard their bird call, i was like that is so loud considering the tiny size of such a marvellous little bird. i am always happy when i manage to see them. awesome video Liam, packed with some great information .

Another interesting bit for you is that many wrens share communal roosting sites in winter. Unused nest boxes can be packed solid with wrens so don’t take them down after nesting is finished.

I had a Wren nest in my shed - I couldn't use the thing until they'd fledged. I hope they appreciated it.

As a child my grandmother loved wrens and set up nesting boxes fot them in her back yard They remain one of my favorite birds to this day

I have a family of Carolina wrens nesting in a hanging resin birdhouse shaped like a fire helmet (I’m a volunteer), and I’ve had them nesting in other parts of my backyard over the years. Sometimes they take over a bluebird house, sometimes they nest in one of the hanging birdhouses, and one memorable year they chose a wooden flower box I had under my potting table on the deck. I hadn’t even known they were there until I was planting spring flowers in the pots on my deck and several juvenile wrens came hopping right up to me and watched what I was doing. Those cute little guys had absolutely no fear!

❤ wrens. Such a beautiful song that they sing

Britains most beautiful little bird, a real beauty !

What an adorable presentation , featuring my favorite bird of all ! 💚🥰🥰❤️💛🌏🐾

❤ the little wren , one of my favourite birds and a frequent visitor in my garden 👍

Ah, the wee droileen ....A thimbleful of song ...

Sassy little birds ,one of my favorites

Thank you, Liam. You are one of Nature's Few, True, Perfect Gentlemen. Bye for now. Rab 👋

There are plenty of wrens in Australia, too. At my place there are numerous Superb Blue wrens and they are extremely busy and cheerful little birds, even becoming so used to my presence that they will come right up to me in search of bread crumbs and such around my feet when I am sitting on the porch.

I love them💙💜💚🇺🇸✨😊

My family had some Wren's nest on our screened in back porch this summer. The babies are absolutely adorable, and mom and dad are actually rather understanding about us needing to walk past them!

Where I live we have the beautiful Splendid Wren.

We have an identical wren here in the USA that we call the “Carolina wren”. We’ve had a nesting pair near our house for over 50 years since the offspring tends to come back to its original nesting place year after year. It’s by far my favorite bird and the sound it makes is louder than any other bird in our region except maybe the corvids. Wonderfully presented and informative video!

I live on the edge of a dry creek in the midwest US. I often sleep with my window open and in the morning am awakened by the song of the wrens. It is entertaining watching them squabble over nests.

I love them so much ❤ Such cute little fluffballs of joy ❤❤❤

Thank you, Liam. Beautiful wee creatures. It is a pleasure to see/have them accompany us upon this Astral Plane. 💖 All the best. Donating when my auld State Pension allows, with pleasure! Stay free. Rab 🍻 😎 🕊

Thank you very informative Beautiful little bird

As a bird lover I found this was really informative, a must watch.

Thank you for this. I had a wren build a next in my Christmas cactus on the front porch. I was blessed to see all 5 eggs leave the nest from my window, So sweet. A pair of wrens returned this May to the same cactus plant, started busily building their nest. So sad to say that I made the mistake of moving the plant about an inch. It startled the bird sitting very close by, and they haven’t returned since. Makes my heart so sad that I did this…

I've got a Wren living in my ivy hedge... Precious little birds!.... Thnk u for sharing x

We here in Central Texas enjoy these awesome bird’s song. Loud, and beautiful. Love them.

Love these little ones. They are adorable

We currently have a pair in one of our potted plants in the carport. Wrens have nested somewhere in our carport or storage room for years. We are in America, nice to hear about their habits across the pond. Have a great day.

Sweet

Very good .

So beautiful,we are so lucky to have them.lovely channel.

Good video! 👍

Love Wrens. Got a bunch of them around my place. They nest all over the place. One has a nest now in a small bucket on my back porch. Another poor little guy tried to make a nest on the back eave of my new chicken coop but the ledge wouldn't hold the material. There was enough moss laying on the ground to fill at least a 13 gallon trash can. I'm going to add a block that will fix that for them today when I'm there to add another roosting bar in the coop. Carolina Wrens we have here in north Georgia. Always cheers me up to watch them point their beaks to the heavens and sing to the Angels! Such a big voice from such a tiny little bird!

I'd not seen a wren in the garden for years, then last year one perched on a branch next to my head while I was watering the garden. Stayed a while watching me, then off, beautiful ❤

🤙☕️Thanks.Birds are amazing.😇

❤🎉 wow that's super awesome 😎. Thanks for sharing Your Awesome Day n knowledge. Happy Blessed Father's Day n everyday.

Amazing, thanks Liam.

Wonderful, thank you from California.

Interesting and informative as always!

Wow! So many species in America and only one in the Old world. Perfect opportunity to predict and study future sudivision in subspecies and species. Great video !

Where I live in North Carolina (U.S.A.) we have Carolina Wrens. I have been feeding all my wild backyard birds for over 20 years now. I always like to see my little Carolina Wrens. I have one Wren that almost every day sits on my BBQ grill and melodiously sings so beautifully. I have even taken video of him singing. A few weeks ago some Carolina Wrens found their way into my husbands workshop. They built a nest. We thought they only had one baby in the workshop. But, the next day I actually discovered four fledglings trying to find their way out of the workshop. So, I helped all the babies get out of the building. I don't know if they all survived once they got out, but at least they had a chance (once they got out of the building). But, every day I enjoy seeing my Wrens fly to the bird feeder for roasted unsalted peanut chips...which they love!!! Then they fly onto my back deck to break up the peanut chip and eat it. They truly are such adorable little birds...even when I walk past them and they loudly scold me...I still love them!

I love wrens, they call in our garden a lot.thanks Liam.

Very sweet little birds.

Thanks.

Wrens ❤❤❤❤😊

Thanks Liam👍

We have beautiful wrens in Australia. The splendid blue wren is truly a sight to behold.

We call our wrens in Northeast Pa Genny Wrens and they have such a lovely song 🌸

Thank you

Thanks from Albuquerque , NM USA . Didn't know the Wren was the most abundant breeding bird in the UK . Thanks for sharing .

Thank you for this good information. I live in Australia (moved here from England) There are beautiful wrens here too, of various colours.

I should be asleep but I'm binge watching your videos

We have 2 nest boxes in the back yard. Either chickadees or house wrens use them each summer. Love both but the chickadees will always be my favorite, but not by much. We also have 5 feeders and one suet station all with different seeds. Seems like sunflower hearts are preferred by gold and house finches. When chickadee moms and/or dads bring their chicks to show them where to get lunch, and they were born and raised in our nest box it can’t get any better. So much joy and happiness. Only 30 years ago we didn’t even notice but holy smokes who knew? It’s an older people thing so thank you very much ! In mid May, we live in south central Minnesota, the summer migration is in full swing. They began stopping about 5 years ago and it’s been an annual event. Goldfinches, indigo buntings, rose breasted grosbeaks, Baltimore orioles, white throated and white crowned and Harris sparrows. Just in May we put out orange halves and grape jelly for the orioles. For 2-5 days it’s a mad house but the highlight of our bird watching for the entire year. Some birds make one visit and gone. The first year I had my bird book out to try to identify about half a dozen of mid size yellow birds with thick beaks. Ground feeders they were and “Holy cow!” Evening Grosbeaks and what a surprise. They’ve never returned. The house wrens eat insects and little green caterpillars and sing, sing, sing. Yep birds are for us old timers, and we’ll keep them.

I love Wrens Thank you so much for this video

We made a Scare Crow for our vegetable garden. In the pocket of the Scarecrows Coveralls. Wrens made a nest. And hatched little ones. Such a pretty song they sing. Thank you for this information.

My favorite bird

Love the wrens you brilliant making video,s narrating is excellent.

I’m disabled and in bed, a couple of month back a Wren got into my room, it kept me company and amused at its antics

Great video. I learned a number of things.

thanks liam another very interesting video thanks for sharing

I love the wrens…what so funny is they will nest any where!! I had one build a nest in a rolling hose reel, right in the small shelf on the handle area!! And they are loud when they sing!!

I have one nesting in my pompom tree right now, it's brilliant watching them

I have Blue Wrens in my Australian garden ❤❤❤

Love the wrens

You can always rely a wren to take up home if you have any sort of outbuildings or sheds where they can gain access, they often build their nest in the most unexpected of places.

I had a pair of wrens nest in a hanging pot. It was a pleasure to see them. The males work very hard feeding the chicks.

Excellent video and great information. It always amazes me how that high volume song can come from such a tiny bird.

In southern New England all you need is a bird house and House Wrens will move into it. We also have the Carolina Wren, who has nested in a box of rags in my garage or in a hanging flowerpot. They have no problem with people close by.

Beautiful little bird Troglodytes, they might be small but their song is loud ! Many thanks 👍.

We have them here in Louisiana and they are one of my favorite birds. I call them cheep cheeps.

All of your video's are fascinating, thank you.

👍

Happy wren lover in America. Wrens are notorious for daring into garages, homes, nesting in mail and newspaper boxes, tool sheds. Very opportunistic. They love to hunt in shrubs and brush piles. Sweet singers and bold. A most favorite bird.

Aren't they just gorgeous?

Great video. Look like Carolina Wrens, one of my favorites.

I got the Cornell Lab Merlin Bird ID app today and its so good. I used it to sound ID a bird i heard, and it was a wren. When i played the in-built sounds/calls to double check that it was actually a wren, it attracted it to the garden, where i was able to photograph it. So that's the first time ive actually seen one! It was pretty amazing.

I really enjoy your short videos.

Great vid ,cheers mate 👍

Thank you, beautiful bird.

Liam certainly knows his stuff, and always makes his videos interesting and informative.

the song of a canyon wren in southwestern canyons is forever in my memory, such a sweet song, a wren knocked itself out on my window and i carfully put it in my flowers it recovered and now for years comes back and sings to me in the morning

A lot of noise from a little bird. Cheers Liam, the St Kilda wren is an interesting guy,totally endemic to the island and is a little larger than its mainland cousins 😊

Loved your video Liam. What a beautiful song the wren has. That male would have had to work his tail off with four families to support Thank you very much for a great informative video ❤❤

Thanks for this video. I always enjoy your videos, your enthusiasm and enjoyment of subject really shows through and makes each one a pleasure to watch.

Thanks Liam, always learning new things in your videos, great stuff, thank you.

Great video!❤

Thank you. Great video.

I have wrens nesting in my garden most years. Their nests are really lovely and are usually nestled in the Ivy around my cherry tree but have even been inside my previous years runner bean canes.

I live in Texas and it sure gets hot here, one time my pet wren took a bath in a melted ice cube in the palm of my hand which l held close to my body and it had such a good time doing it. As tiny as they are it sure amazes me how smart they are.
