|
| Cactus wrens, white-winged doves, and red-tailed hawks build nests in the crotches between arms and the trunk. |
|
| These box designs are proven to attract bluebirds and other native species, such as tree swallows and house wrens. |
|
| Every year, tree swallows and house wrens take over almost two-thirds of the 400 bluebird houses in Fort Lewis, Washington. |
|
| The equivalent of teen-fueling pizza, however, may determine the nesting season for tropical house wrens. |
|
| Among house wrens, the males do most of the invading, although females sometimes try to chase away other females and claim their mates. |
|
| Starting then and for the rest of his life, he photographed bitterns, red-winged blackbirds, and marsh wrens, among other bird species. |
