On Mother's Day, a few weeks ago, my mom gave me the cutest little log cabin style bird house.  My husband and I hung it up when I got home later that day and I've been watching it ever since.

This morning, a very vocal songster commanded my attention as I was filling up the feeders. He was perched right near the little bird house and then, to my delight, he went inside it.  As I continued to watch throughout the morning, I realized there was a pair of House Wrens industriously setting up house!  How exciting!

I took some photos - they didn't seem to mind. I'm anxious to see how things turn out.

He wasn't very afraid of me and let me walk quite close

Oh, how he LOVES to sing!
