Carolina Wren – 4/25/20

Observer: Paul Lauenstein

Observation Date: 4/25/20

Observation Time: 10:00 a.m.

Observation Location: Conservation land at Lakeview St. & Morse St.

Common Name: Carolina Wren

Scientific Name: Thryothorus ludovicianus

Comments: The Carolina Wren is sensitive to cold weather, with the northern populations decreasing markedly after severe winters. Global warming might be responsible for the northward range expansion seen in the late-1900s and early 2000’s.

A pair bond may form between a male and a female at any time of the year, and the pair will stay together for life. Members of a pair stay together on their territory year round, and forage and move around the territory together.
