This page is for the Carolina Wren (Thryothorus ludovicianus). My first photographic evidence of a Carolina Wren occurred on December 24, 2021 at the Fort Worth Nature Preserve, Fort Worth, TX. This photograph is also the best image I have of a Carolina Wren. We could hear this little guy singing in the bushes but were having a difficulty time spotting him. Fortunately, he came up long enough with a clear enough shot to get the picture.

The following photographs are the best representative images from different dates and locations than my species representative example.
