House Wrens Vanishing Across Local Farms
The article notes a serious decline in house wrens this year with a farm reporting no return of the three to four nesting pairs and town strolls lacking the familiar wrens. A few nesting records exist but the overall population remains low.
House Wrens Arrival and Nesting Habits in May District
House wrens usually arrive in the district in the first two weeks of May. They nest in cavities or nest boxes, using small dry twigs and grass bits for lining. Their six to eight eggs hatch in early June, and by September both adults and young migrate south for winter.
