Gotta love Carolina Wrens! Or at least I do. This one was singing just around the corner from the Cooper’s Hawk from yesterday’s post, beside the boardwalk behind the Hawk Watch at Lighthouse State Park. It popped up on this branch that sticks out over the boardwalk and posed. I got off maybe a dozen shots before it went back into the bush. Still really bad light, but, hey, gotta love Carolina Wrens!
