The Fretting Wren

The Fretting WrenThe habits of this bird are sadly predictable. Worried that his nest won’t hold, he builds two. Too nervous to sing, it makes alarmed little calls throughout the night. The mating season is especially hard on this species, amplifying its abundant neuroses. Advice: A kind word here or there couldn’t hurt.
