Friday Feathers
The Carolina Wren (Thryothorus ludovicianus) mates for the long-term, remaining together throughout the year in permanent territories.
Sings year-round, and the male is known to sing up to 40 different song types, singing one song repeatedly before switching to another. Female also sings, resulting in duets. Nests in birdhouses, unusual places such as mailboxes, bumpers of cars or broken taillights, or in nearly any other cavity.
