Wrens are the best parents! Facts about these bird's nests

[@richardsalley9848]

Wrens are just so darn cute!!!

[@Ecotasia]

Yes they are

[@gwenwilliams3594]

I enjoyed this. It would have been even better to have included the beautiful call of the canyon wren since you spotlighted another wren call.

[@BuscandoFauna]

Hello friend, thank you very much for sharing this beautiful video. I hope you have a nice weekend. I send you a big hug .

[@Ecotasia]

Thank you, what species of these birds do you get in Argentina?

[@BuscandoFauna]

@@Ecotasia Unfortunately no friends :(

[@PrimitiveTechnologycountryside]

Very beautiful birds and your information.. Thanks friend for sharing 🙂.

[@Ecotasia]

Thanks for watching, they are wonderful birds.

[@springe-school2383]

Great capture, nice video 👌👍

[@Ecotasia]

Thank you

Canyon wrens have such a beautiful song.

[@Ecotasia]

Makes them one of my favorite North American Birds

[@naturewithgabe]

Loved this one. Wrens are some of my favorite birds. Always on the go.

[@Ecotasia]

I love them two, even the birds that are just called wrens outside Troglodytidae. Hopefully one day I can complete the wren trilogy with videos on Maluridae and Acanthisittidae

[@naturewithgabe]

@@Ecotasia that would be pretty dang cool!

[@TheWildlifeBrothers]

Wrens are seriously amazing birds, and it’s incredible to be just how adaptable they are. They’re also seriously overlooked, and I’m glad you covered so many cool species in this video to demonstrate how unique they can be. I would love to see Cactus Wrens and Canyon Wrens in the wild one day, and seeing Rufous-naped Wrens in Costa Rica was a real treat. Great work John! - Harrison and Evan

[@Ecotasia]

Yeah you two need to come out west to explore the deserts of North America. This was a fun video to produce as I have wanted to feature canyon wrens for some time now. Thanks for watching.

[@gsxrman6319]

Beautiful video. When I lived in Colorado I used to go to these deserts in the winter to backpack and get out of the snow, often the wrens were the only thing making a sound . Impressive to capture the images of them.

[@laceytrusty8649]

Never knew the house wrens we love to watch on our back patio could be so cunning - definitely learned something new! Canyon wrens are so cute!

[@Ecotasia]

Yes canyon wrens are so cute. Wrens are such an amazing bird family

[@dontwalkdontrun]

Smart birds. A couple of canyon wrens made a nest on a tool shelf in my screened in porch. Now their fledglings are hopping around the place. They got a human to defend their nest against the cats trying to eat them now. Smart smart birds.

[@Ecotasia]

yeah they are really amazing.

[@ShelbyOnSafari]

Really clever how the canyon wrens use the natural landscape to help them hide their eggs! Wow the cactus wren is gorgeous 😍 their nests are pretty impressive too. You got some great footage! Thanks for sharing 💚

[@Ecotasia]

Yes cactus wrens are amazing birds, I always find it funny how often their call appears in video game deserts.

[@satchelsnowgw]

Love wrens! Great video!

[@Ecotasia]

Thank you so much!

[@Rob_2020]

Awesome video, love the House Wren. They are extremely territorial, they will brake other birds eggs and kill other birds babies if the nest is within their territory. Thanks for sharing.

[@Ecotasia]

yes, it is a really interesting behavior

[@FioreCiliegia]

Have a very friendly pair nesting in a box attached to the window of our spare room. They aren’t quite friendly enough to eat out of your hand but within only a week of them nesting they determined we don’t pose a threat and let us watch them come and go from the nest box only 5 feet away. I can only hope the babies will stick around after they fledge, its pretty late in the year for nesting

[@Ecotasia]

Really amazing!

[@FollowThomas]

This is a well-done wildlife video, I like your narration. Subbed.

[@Ecotasia]

Thank you very much!

[@TheGrmany69]

For me they are like feathered mice... you always see them getting in an out of cracks other birds can't access.

[@Ecotasia]

Yeah they really get into places you don't expect birds to be sometimes.

[@frederickwise5238]

HELP (info) and thanks We have had a nesting of wrens on one of our 2 front porches. We totally closed down any/all activity at #1 so as not to disturb them. Irt appears they have finished this brood and all have flown away. (we intend to wait several more days to be absolutely sure before using that porch again but.....) QUESTION. will they come back to the sane site for a SECOND brood of the season or will they seek another place. We'll give up the porch if necessary.. Delivery people dont understand and even for us the 2nd porch is inconvenient.

[@Ecotasia]

From my understanding is yes the wrens will use the nest a second time for the re-nest.

[@frederickwise5238]

@@Ecotasia THANKS. They finished up on the 25/26th of Jun. No more scolding when we walk past to the 2nd porch (path is 10-15 ft away). LOL My wife now wonders 2 things. Will they remove the materials of the 1sr nest (so we will know when they've decided to return) and how much time between nestings is usual.? So we can be sure to close off that walk/porch again. Im guessing several weeks to regain strength/body weight for more eggs. We have had many wrens over the years , never this close before. We have had robins nest on the porch in the past. They wernt even skittish about us coming by .

[@BioBush]

What is it about the wrens that make cactus spines and ants not a horrible problem for themselves and their nestlings? Whatever it is, they are cool birds! One Passeriformes family down, ~109 to go.

[@Ecotasia]

Some flycatchers also nest on the acacia, and I have also seen doves and thrashers on cholla, so these are not exclusive behaviors, I really just wanted to talk about wrens, and their is a diversity of interesting breeding strategies, but many other birds have convergently come up with similar solutions. I have done Pipridae, and I would argue I have done Thamnophilidae (though they had to share a video with a bunch of insects), too bad Drepanidinae is now just a subfamily because I have a video on them as well. But I think it is even more to go than 109, I have seen 140+ tossed about- Every Passerine ranked would be like a whole year of content

[@chrisgoldbach4450]

Crazy to imagine old wooden ships so big that bird nests were created in them transported the birds or mushroom spores in cow dung to all kinds of different parts of the world.

[@justaguywhoplaysfalloutsom1104]

The video after this was called, “wren nest built in our grill”. Kinda ironic
