The House Wren is a familiar bird to many of us as it is found through most of South America, Central America, and North America (at least south of the boreal forests), making it the most widely distributed bird in the Americas. This rambunctious little bird flits through our yards scolding anything and anybody who dares to enter their nesting area. That nesting area often includes our decks, patios, and garages! One can't help but like these noisy active birds. They are one of my favorite "yard" birds.
