Carolina or House Wren

Carolina WrenA very common bird found around here in the summer months. Very vocal!  One of their calls, which I heard frequently sounded something like “teacher-teacher-teacher teacher”  The bird pictured here was observed near a nest of hatchlings (and is presumably one of the parents) the interesting thing about the nest was that it was constructed in a hanging flower pot on the Booth’s porch.  Nesting in hanging flower pots apparently is a common practice with this species
