A New Wren Nest

Today while I was taking a stroll around the house with Mellow, I spotted a house wren sneaking twigs in our chicken coop. When I got closer, I found out that he was building a new nest!

A wren nest could also be mistaken for a pile of twigs.

    
This is a spider egg sack. Wrens add them to their nests to repel mites and other nest parasites.
