Did some research seeing mama wren nesting in our yard - they are tiny and stay hidden so at first we mistakenly thought they were finches.
She's being run ragged feeding her little chick-lets and while we have berries and bugs in the yard they have considerable competition from bigger birds (even sparrows are larger than them) and chipmunks and squirrels so I put some extra berries from our icebox nearby for them with a little bit of peanut butter (organic only ingredient peanuts) because mama needs her strength!
Papa's been working hard, too and he may appreciate it. I just need to pay close attention now to make sure my good intentions don't backfire by making them feel insecure that i'm 'intruding' and/or attracting the aforementioned competition! They're keeping cool :o)
