CAROLINA WREN
#WRN-400 Notecards
Also availalbe in Notecard Assortment Pack #AST-506
#LE-WRN-400 Limited Edition Print

Large for a wren, the Carolina wren is the size of a small sparrow. This energetic bird thrives in gardens, parks, barnyards and forests in the eastern United States except for the extreme north. Its upper body is a warm reddish brown, changing to a buff belly. It also has a conspicuous white eyebrow stripe.

Rarely seen more than 12 feet above the ground, this ground forager likes to check under fallen leaves and exposed tree roots for its diet of insects, including ants, bees, beetles, caterpillars, crickets and moths. This wren is rather clumsy in flight, springing up and violently jerking its tail and body during short flappings of wings that carry it only a few steps. Nests are built in enclosed areas — everything from abandoned woodpecker holes to old cans and shoes. The Carolina Wren is the state bird of South Carolina
