Cactus Wren

The "Cactus Wren" is noisy and found in the desert.  Also may be in dry brush-land and suburbs.
They mate for life. They do have a greeting display, perching upright with wings and tail partly spread, giving out a very harsh call

They make nest  their in a football shape. in cactus and spiny shrubs, made of cholla cactus and desert trees.  They sleep at times in their nest , after the young leave.
They eat mostly insects some fruit and berries.   They eat more plant food then the other wrens.

Enjoy.  Kitfoxgal
