Marsh Wren, Cistothorus palustris: Bear River Bird Sanctuary; Brigham, Utah
Marsh Wrens seem as numerous as the
cattails at the Bear River Bird Sanctuary, and their vociferous chants could be heard continuously as I drove along the
wildlife drive. Many of the wren’s territories are deep within the mass of
rushes, but this fine fellow was building a nest within easy reach of my
lens. As soon as I stopped to shoot, it
flew to a nearby reed, began singing and perfectly posed for my camera. I wish every shot could be as easy.
