I hear these little wrens singing in the forest, but I rarely see them. It looks like this Pacific Wren posed for Craig Tooley, singing his beautiful, complex call.

Perhaps the wren didn't like being disturbed by the camera action, because he looks rather miffed in this photo!

To hear the call of a Pacific Wren, here is a link to the Cornell Lab of Ornithology: https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Pacific_Wren/sounds

This website advises looking - and listening - for these birds in the early morning for your best chance to see them. I just enjoy hearing their singing as I walk along a forest path.

Thanks to Craig for allowing me to share his photos with you here. To see much more of Craig's nature photography, here is his website: www.ruffimage.com

Our mini heatwave is over; fog rolled in overnight. But it pulled back to the ocean, revealing a beautiful, cool day. More wildflowers are appearing, including a group of Gnome Plants that grow on our property. I will be sharing some photos of them soon.

Spring doesn't know...
