I've gotten some poor shots of these guys before but this time I lucked out and had 2 that were pretty reasonable. They wouldnt let me as close as I like to get (under 15 ft) but I got about 20 ft to 25 ft which is pretty decent.

Thanks all.
I'm more excited about this bird than the Screech Owl.
I almost never see these guys.

If only I had 600mm.

A Rock Wren complete with rock....how adorable is that!
Love the spots all over this one Jeremy; quite different from the Carolina's around here. It also seems to have a bit less recurve to it's bill. It is, however, cute as a button and very nicely captured.

Thanks all.
It's always good when Brad chimes in and doesn't correct
My ID. Lol
Steve, wren are the cutest birds. Maybe not the most fancy but so cute and the spots
on these are awesome.
