  1. Looks like the Wren was new to JungleDragon, good thing you captured it! Posted 12 years ago
    1. The Wren is very quick to hide so getting a good shot is proving somewhat difficult, but to see one with a Robin (if only for a short time) was wonderful. :) Posted 12 years ago

The Eurasian Wren is a very small bird, and the only member of the wren family Troglodytidae found in Eurasia. In Anglophone Europe, it is commonly known simply as the Wren. It was once lumped with "Troglodytes hiemalis" of eastern North America and "Troglodytes pacificus" of western North America as the Winter Wren.
