ABC Wednesday: W is for Wren and X for X-mas

When a Carolina Wren landed on my neighbor's X-mas wreath I decided to cheat and do one post for ABC Wednesday's W and X days. W is the theme this week and next week is X right in time for X-mas. I hope everyone has a happy holiday.

    What a clever and timely way of combining the two letters, Carver. Wishing you and yours a Merry Christmas! The little bird on the wreath is such a nice way to ring in the holidays. :)

    How did you lure the bird? Or was it kismet?

    Thanks to everyone for visiting. To answer the questions, yes its a real live wren that kindly landed on my neighbor's wreath and posed for me. Thankfully my camera was around my neck.
