Just got back in town from a week long Florida trip. Heard a House Wren when I got out of the van. They have also been at Miami-Whitewater, at least during birdathon time last May.

Subject: House wrens



I heard from a fellow who lives in NW Columbus, and for years has

relished the presence of house wrens, that for the first time there are

none in his area. I told him birds don't live forever, but he insisted

he was missing more than a few pairs. I really haven't noticed a dearth

of house wrens, but I promised to find out if others have. He knows we

weren't talking about Carolina wrens. Has anyone else with years of

experience missed hearing or seeing house wrens this summer? I'll let

him know what you may have to say. No need to respond to the list.

Thanks,

Bill Whan
