When it returns, it will perch first nearby and give a loud call, prompting the chicks to cheep and open wide. Both parents spend hours bringing insects, caterpillars, and spiders to their young. House wrens are cavity nesters \u2013 this nest is in a hole in a large sycamore tree. Male house wrens build a nest of sticks to attract a female, and if she approves of his work, she tops it off with grass and feathers. House wrens are only about 5\u201d long and weigh as much as two quarters. But they have a lively, bubbly, jumbled song and sing loudly as they hop from a branch with their tail raised. In spring, you may hear one singing in Rose Canyon \u2013 or in your yard.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns alignfull is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"House Wren\" width=\"580\" height=\"326\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/IvmVzZ3mjOE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Question:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:25px\">What do House Wrens eat?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-pb-accordion-item c-accordion__item js-accordion-item no-js\" data-initially-open=\"false\" data-click-to-close=\"true\" data-auto-close=\"true\" data-scroll=\"false\" data-scroll-offset=\"0\"><h2 id=\"at-1900\" class=\"c-accordion__title js-accordion-controller\" role=\"button\">Click for the answer:<\/h2><div id=\"ac-1900\" class=\"c-accordion__content\">\n<p style=\"font-size:25px\">Many kinds of insects and arachnids such as beetles, spiders, earwigs, flies, daddy longlegs, leafhoppers, and springtails.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-soundcloud wp-block-embed-soundcloud wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"House Wren by Gregory Barham\" width=\"580\" height=\"400\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?visual=true&#038;url=https%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F1021461271&#038;show_artwork=true&#038;maxheight=870&#038;maxwidth=580&#038;secret_token=s-eSd6EzOp9wk\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Photo \u00a9 Noah Reiter Quick Facts House wrens will nest in anything from a tin can to an abandoned hornet&#8217;s nest.
