November 13: Carolina Wren visits our feeder
Kristen Lindquist
According to my notes, a Carolina Wren last visited our bird feeder in 2006. I was especially surprised to see one on this cold morning, as they're a southern species that's moved into the northern climes of Maine only recently. Even though I was running late this morning, I had to stop and admire this uncommon bird-visitor on the other side of the kitchen window.
Washing breakfast dishes,
I pause to watch
a wren at the feeder.
